I'm also doing a project where I have to find an allusion. i wanted to use the "out, out" poem that some people mentioned. But i was wondering, how is that supposed to be an allusion to Shakespeare??

Help with the Shakespeare Allusion stuff
Hey, don't know if anyone mentioned this one, but a recent take on the "Something Wicked This Way comes" Bradbury/Shakespeare Allusion is South Park. They just had an episode called "Something Walmart this Way Comes". Pretty hilarious by the way.

google is such a lovely thing these days..

Try sound, fury, shakespeare

Quote:
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, 24
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! 28
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more;
....

That's truly pathetic--however, i'll give you a clue, although i suspect (i hope) it is too late, and you will probably never read the novel anyway. Specifically:

It is a tale told by an idiot
Full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.

Ha! We're stepping on each other's lines again, Set. Pathetic, I agree.
