"Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more.
Men were deceivers ever.
One foot in sea and one on shore,
to one thing constant never."
Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing by Shakespeare... who knew banter.
Shakespeare certainly knows his banter, and the war of the sexes between Beatrice and Benedick, and their mutual defeat, is so wonderful. I'm going to quote it for a few days. Blimey, I could just transcribe the whole play bit by bit.
(And I'm feeling fine this morning, just a bit sore all over from the jolt!)
