"Hamlet"
Act 1, Scene 3, line 67:
Hamlet: Not so, my lord; I am too much i' the sun.

Great pun. In Shakespeare's time, sun exposure was linked to melancholy. Hamlet is also implying that he is too much of a "son," i.e., he has too many parents.

I think Hamlet would've liked The Cure.
He dressed the part, "inky cloak" and all.

To Sir, With Love

I want to sit in the teacher's lounge drinking tea with Mr. Thackeray.
All teacher's lounges should have fireplaces, right?
