(From
nexstarman):

I actually tried this a bunch of different times (maybe a dozen, or so); I think I know my Shakespeare, in general. But I only knew about half of these half-right (knowing the play, but forgetting the original word, or vice-versa) right off the bat. (In this particular case, I knew the play immediately, but the original word slipped my mind).
What can I say? that man wrote a whole freaking lot of individual lines -- I can't be expected to keep them all straight, can I?
Anyway, I liked this random generation best, because it came through as the most true.

Blow, blow, thou winter wind.
Thou art not so unkind
As man's Internet.
Which work of Shakespeare was the original quote from?
