Shakespeare Quote Mugs
Description: As many of you know, I'm an occasional performer in the Chaotic Tiefling ATL Shakespearean Performance Stream, WHAT STREAMS MAY COME. I've posted numerous references, partial quotes & insults the last few months from Will's various works, almost always at the request of the cast & hosts. Sometimes, you get requests for stuff that will pretty much NOT FLY without context. So I've come up with a happy(?) medium: List the quote AND source. This first quote comes from Love's Labour's Lost & I think is pretty self-explanatory as to why context is DESPERATELY needed for it.
Description: Sometimes you wonder what you might get away with. Old Bill Shakespeare is no exception! Though to be fair, MUCH of what was commonplace, innocent speech of his time is anything BUT that today! For instance, this quote is part of Lady MacBeth talking about how far she'd go to, if she'd promised her husband something. In modern readings, the audience can't HELP but cough or snicker.
Description: Level up your literary style with this iconic piece of theatrical history! This design features the infamous line from Shakespeare’s Macbeth: "What, you egg! [He stabs him.]" Widely considered one of the funniest and most unexpected moments in classic literature, this quote is a badge of honor for anyone who spent their school days analyzing the Bard.
Description: In King Lear, Act 4, Scene 1, Gloucester said, "'Tis the times' plague, when madmen lead the blind." It’s a nod to the madness we live through, the eerie familiarity of history repeating itself, and how we cope—with a smirk, a touch of sarcasm, and a reminder that the world has always been this strange.
Description: Introducing our latest graphic design masterpiece, featuring a powerful quote from one of Shakespeare's most beloved plays, A Midsummer Night's Dream. The quote reads: "Though she be but little, she is fierce.” These words have been brought to life in a hand-drawn, grunge style that perfectly captures the spirit of the quote and the play. It serves as a reminder that even the smallest among us can be fierce and powerful, and that we should never underestimate the strength and determination of those around us - or ourselves.
Description: This Shakespearean literary themed shirt sports Yorick's skull from Hamlet, Act 5, Scene 1, with the quote "A fellow of infinite jest". An ideal drama themed Christmas gift for lovers of the bard, of theatre, students, and actors. Also makes a funny gag gift for teachers, writers, morticians, medics, surgeons, coroners, pathologists, psychologists, anthropologists, and archaeologists.
Description: This design cleverly combines Shakespeare’s Hamlet with Schrödinger’s famous thought experiment, replacing "to be or not to be" with "to be and not to be." It humorously highlights the shared theme of uncertainty—whether in existential questions or quantum mechanics. Perfect for fans of science, literature, or witty intellectual humor, this design is a playful nod to life’s paradoxes and mysteries.
