I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too

Edit: Usually these kind of posts only used to have excerpts from books or ancient proverbs, but now I am seeing a lot more quotes from shows/movies/games are also resonating with people. It’s pretty cool to see.

    How many ages hence shall this our lofty scene be acted over, in states unborn and accents yet unknown?

    Shakespeare, Julius Caesar, Act 3, scene 1.

    But … I first encountered this line in the shooter game Silpheed on the Apple IIgs, long before I’d read any Shakespeare.
