According to Shakespeare on-line, the 10 most famous quotes (I've added an 11th) from JC Not-So-Superstar are as follows. Note that #3 contains an error on Shakespeare's part when he writes "We come to bury Caesar." In Caesar's day, Romans were all cremated, so WS was channeling Elizabethan England's preference for burying bodies, not burning them. But then, this is Shakespeare's way. No matter what the setting, England is, in its way, also the setting. For the Groundlings, if nothing else!

The Evil that men do lives after them, the good is of interred with their bones
One of the least likable of Shakespeare stuff in my opinion. Although it does contain some great lines. The man could write.
Raw ambition dressed up as idealism. An introduction to politics as it is.
