Never ceases to amaze me how many everyday phrases come from Shakespeare - only just found out that “a finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat” is from Measure for Measure

People still gasp at Portia’s trial room denunciation at the climax of The Merchant of Venice: “If it pleases my lords, he who smelt it dealt it!”

'In for a penny, in for a pound'. That's The Merchant of Venice, no?

And Love’s Labours Lost gave us “I know you are, but what am I?”

"You want the moon on a stick!" is one of my favourite lines from Merchant of Venice

I think you’ll find “all because the lady loves milk tray” was one of The bard’s finest sonnets 💝

My favourite is this eponymous quote: “‘Happiness is a cigar’, called Hamlet”

For older readers, the line 'Now hands that do dishes .... Fairy Liquid' is from a first draft of Midsummer Night's Dream. And *not*, as is sometimes claimed, from an Ian Rankin novel.

Apparently "If Carlsberg did murders" was on the advertising posters for Hamlet

👏

"Let's have a look at what you could have won" is from Twelfth Night. Or The Comedy of Errors
