Quotes[]
- Peter Quince: Nick! C'mon now. Come on.
(Nick Buttom shows up.... a donkey-man)
(they gasp)
Nick Buttom: WHAT?!?
Francis Fluke: O monstrous! O strange! we are haunted.
Tom Snout: Pray, masters! fly, masters! Help!
(they panic and run about, colliding with eachother and knocking things about, then run away)
(Nick Buttom sees his reflection)
(he gasps... then smirks)
Nick Buttom: This all? Coz I'm a donkey-man. I'm a donkey, not a lion.
- Tom: Why is all this weird stuff going on?
- Puck: Such boobs these mortals be.
- Tom: So you';re behind this.
Puck: Cross?
Tom: Furious. You transformed a good man into a freak and caused people to fall in love with eachother. All for a prank. Some people nearly died because of you! Change it all back!
Puck: Yes. The king apologises.
- Hermia: You know, Puck may'd been a bit cheeky. But he was a real sweety.
- Puck: If we shadows have offended...... Think but this, and all is mended, that you have but slumber'd here while these visions did appear. And this weak and idle theme,n o more yielding, but a dream, gentles, do not reprehend; If you pardon, we will mend. And, as I am an honest Puck, If we have unearned luck, now to 'scape the serpent's tongue, we will make amends ere long: Else the Puck a liar call. So good night unto you all. Give me your hands, if we be friends, And Robin shall restore amends.
