Some people like Launce's somewhat bewildered explanation of how his dog Crab is an unfeeling beast from The Two Gentlemen of Verona.

The dialogue between the Porter and Macduff in Macbeth is hilarious but the monologue which precedes it is less so.

The Dromios in Comedy of Errors have some funny speeches, especially when Dromio of S is describing the other Dromio's wife.

Falstaff's monologue about honour in Henry IV Part 1 may be the best of all. It is in Act 5 Scene 1 and goes like this:

"What need I be so forward with him that calls not on me? Well, 'tis no matter; honour pricks me on. Yea, but how if honour prick me off when I

come on? how then? Can honour set to a leg? no: or an arm? no: or take away the grief of a wound? no. Honour hath no skill in surgery, then? no. What is

honour? a word. What is in that word honour? what is that honour? air. A trim reckoning! Who hath it? he that died o' Wednesday. Doth he feel it? no.

Doth he hear it? no. 'Tis insensible, then. Yea, to the dead. But will it not live with the living? no. Why? detraction will not suffer it. Therefore

I'll none of it. Honour is a mere scutcheon: and so ends my catechism."
