Today's Guess The Shakespeare Quote As Reinterpreted By My Buddy Rob:
"Man - what are you like, girl? July or something?
You're prettier than that. You're more warm and pleasant than that.
It's going to get windy in a couple three months,
and I bet summer goes by fast.
It gets too fucking hot too! sometimes,
Or cloudy. Hazy.
But shit, everything pretty gets ugly occasionally, right?
It's all either luck, or maybe instinct run amok.
But you, bitch: your good shit STAYS.
What you got's yours to keep.
Even that bitch death can't claim your light -
because I said all this shit about you,
and people will keep reading it.
(WORD.)"

Sonnet #18
“Shall I compare thee to a Summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And Summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And oft' is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd:
But thy eternal Summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wanderest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.”

For real.
Sonnet XVIII (18)
Sonnet 18, c'mon man!
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate;
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date;
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
