The first of what will hopefully be a long-ish sub series, within my drabbles. The 'Shakespeare' inspired ones won't all be grouped together-- they'll be spread out over a few weeks.

But I was wondering, because I'm lazy-- I've only actually read four of his plays (A Midsummer Night's dream, The Tempest, Romeo and Juliet, Anthony and Cleopatra.) And each Shakespeare drabble will have a quote to start it off, like this one does. Anyway, my point is that I'm short of quotes. I plan to do one for each of the Cullens (and Bella, obviously), so if anyone has any quotes that seem appropriate, please drop me a review. I need your help!! Thanks. :)

Date: 15th October

Character: Bella

Stimulus word: Shakespeare I

Play: A Midsummer Night's Dream

"Lord, what fools these mortals be!"

Painful accuracy. Shakespeare, poking fun at his own kind through the words of Puck.

And oh, how true that statement had proved! A fool. Idiot. Jackass. Moron. Gullible, stupid, ridiculous, fool! How unbelievable it had seemed, at the time, that someone like him would fall for someone like her! That only ever happened in movies, and she had found out the hard way. How foolish she had been. She had been so blinded by his glorious acting skills that she had not seen the truth.

He was glorious…immortal… perfect in every way… intelligent… and what was she? A mere human girl.

Some mortal fool.

Actually, I forgot to mention-- this story has officially overtaken 'We Don't need no Education' as my second most popular story (counting reviews). My next target would be 91 reviews, because that's the most I've ever had for a story. Donate one, today!
