One of the simpler Shakespeare plays, but nonetheless enjoyable, amusing and a good read all in all.

LITERALLY SO FUNNY? ROSALIND IS MY BISEXUAL ICON I LOVE HER SO SO MUCH
-1 cuz i dont understand shakespeare

best of ‚as you like it‘:

Rosalind - Do you not know I am a woman? When I think, I must speak. […]

Audrey - I am not a slut, though I thank the gods I am foul.

Rosalind - […] You shall never take her without her answer, unless you take
her without her tongue. […]

Rosalind - […] I'll tell thee, Aliena, I cannot be out of the sight of Orlando. I'll go find a shadow, and sigh till he come.
Celia - And I'll sleep.

Rosalind - […] I would love you If I could
To-morrow meet me all together. I will marry you if ever I marry woman, and I'll be married tomorrow. […]


Jaques - […] [To DUKE] You to your former honour I bequeath; Your patience and your virtue well deserves it. [To ORLANDO.] You to a love that your true faith doth merit; [To OLIVER] You to your land, and love, and great allies; [To SILVIUS] You to a long and well-deserved bed; […]

Rosalind - It is not the fashion to see the lady the epilogue; but it is no more unhandsome than to see the lord the
prologue. […] My way is to conjure you; and I'll begin with the women. I charge you, O women, for the love you bear to men, to like as much of this play as please you; and I charge you, O men, for the love you bear to women as I perceive by your
simp'ring none of you hates them - that between you and the women the play may please. If I were a woman, I would kiss as many of you as had beards that pleas'd
me, complexions that lik'd me, and breaths that I defied not; and, I am sure, as many as have good beards, or good faces, or sweet breaths, will, for my
kind offer, when I make curtsy, bid me farewell.
