Don Pedro: Good Signior Leonato, you are come to meet your trouble: the fashion of the world is to avoid cost, and you encounter it.
Leonato: Never came trouble to my house in the likeness of your grace: for trouble being gone, comfort should remain; but when you depart from me, sorrow abides and happiness takes his leave.

CLAUDIO: Can the world buy such a jewel?
BENEDICK: Yea, and a case to put it into. Added on 02.06.2000 | Rating: | rate | e-card | correction CLAUDIO: In mine eye she is the sweetest lady that ever I looked on.

Shall I never see a bachelor of three-score again? Added on 02.06.2000 | Rating: | rate | e-card | correction BEATRICE: No, not till a hot January.

BEATRICE: Is it possible disdain should die while she hath such meet food to feed it as Signior Benedick? Courtesy itself must convert to disdain, if you come in her presence.

Beatrice: Indeed, my lord, he lent it me awhile; and I gave him use for it, a double heart for his single one: marry, once before he won it of me with false dice, therefore your grace may well say I have lost it.
Don Pedro: You have put him down, lady, you have put him down.

Beatrice: No, sure, my lord, my mother cried; but then there was a star danced, and under that was I born.

Benedick: With anger, with sickness, or with hunger, my lord. Not with love. More on: Love Added on 07.07.1999 | Rating: | rate | e-card | correction Don Pedro: Will you have me, lady?
Beatrice: No, my lord, unless I might have another for working days. Your grace is too costly to wear everyday.

Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more.
Men were deceivers ever.
One foot in sea and one on shore,
to one thing constant never.
Then sigh not so but let them go
and be you blithe and bonny,
converting all your sounds of woe
into hey nonny nonny. Added on 07.07.1999 | Rating: | rate | e-card | correction Beatrice: Against my will, I am sent to bid you come into dinner.
Benedick: Fair Beatrice, thank you for your pains.
Beatrice: I took no more pains for those thanks than you take pains to thank me. If it had been painful, I would not have come.
Benedick: You take pleasure then in the message?
Beatrice: Yea, just so much as you may take upon a knife's point. You have no stomach, signor? Fare you well.
Benedick: Ha! "Against my will I am sent to bid you come into dinner." There's a double meaning in that.
