ROSS: Your castle is surprised; your wife and babes
Savagely slaughter’d: to relate the manner,
Were, on the quarry of these murder’d deer,
To add the death of you.MALCOLM: Merciful heaven!
What, man! ne’er pull your hat upon your brows;
Give sorrow words: the grief that does not speak
Whispers the o’er-fraught heart and bids it break.MACDUFF: My children too?
ROSS: Wife, children, servants, all
That could be found.MACDUFF: And I must be from thence!
My wife kill’d too?ROSS: Gordon Bennett, yes, your wife, EVERYBODY’S DEAD!
I should point out that it was my girlfriend that thought of this one, not me.
And that we were watching a production of Macbeth at the time - it’s not like she just did it from memory. Despite the fact that, um, we both did English degrees.

Oh, I got mine with precious little Shakespeare—which is more than fine by me. Part of the reason I stuck to studies in modernism. Too much Bard makes lit students something something.

I wish my fiance knew as much about RD to make a link to it from something else. Closest I’d get from Jen is: Hey Ben, look, doesnt he look like the bald one from Red Dwarf?!
Ghostie : well, it was her who thought up the name for Fuchal, and everything. I am rather proud, yeah ;-)
Tanya : it was at the Minack Theatre, in Cornwall. Not the best production ever - a little amateurish at times - but a wonderful setting.
