rosawI have seen so much Shakespeare on my flist I cannot help but join in:
They say the lady is fair; 'tis a
truth, I can bear them witness; and virtuous; 'tis
so, I cannot reprove it; and wise, but for loving
me; by my troth, it is no addition to her wit, nor
no great argument of her folly, for I will be
horribly in love with her. I may chance have some
odd quirks and remnants of wit broken on me,
because I have railed so long against marriage: but
doth not the appetite alter? a man loves the meat
in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.
Shall quips and sentences and these paper bullets of
the brain awe a man from the career of his humour?
No, the world must be peopled. When I said I would
die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I
were married.
Much Ado About Nothing, Act 2, Scene 3
I think Benedick is my favorite character from the comedies.
This week has been topsy-turvy, with great highs and two very serious lows. My head is spinning from all the drama, personal, professional, and national. Suffice to say things will balance out (I hope). I have been enjoying the season premieres, though I have no profound things to say about any of them. I love Lost, hope Bones gets better, found Supernatural pretty scary but not as scary as Threshold and have a Tivo full of stuff to watch this weekend.
