What about “Wankel Rotary Engine?”

Why is it always "Thin Air"?

Why not "Fat Air" or "Chubby Air" or "Mostly Fit but could stand to lose a few pounds" Air?

“The quality of mercy is not strain’d,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven”

One of my favorites.

Would love to go to the source, but they apparently employ a moron as a web designer. The page gets whited out to display an ad that never gets delivered, or is somehow displayed off screen. Since they disable page up, page down, and arrows, I can’t get to the ad to display it nor get rid of it to read the content.

Damn script kiddies.

“Custom what they did begin Was with long use account no sin.”
Pericles, Prince of Tyre, Act I - Prologue

Not exactly an “everyday phrase”, but a wise note on human nature.

Words that no longer mean what they mean.

On Christmas day my grand-daughter informed me that my beans were "dope" You can imagine my response until she explained that dope means they are really good.

I will never be able to understand this generation.

I knew the rest were from Shakespeare, but I was surprised by “swagger” (I thought that it had been in the English language much longer) and especially “puke” (which I thought was a very recent slang).

In the age of internet trolls...

“And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”

This Shakespeare guy is pretty good.
