Reading the famous first lines has been fun. I began to wonder about famous one-word lines.
For instance, I love it in Romeo and Juliet when Tybalt, getting ready to use his sword, shouts this one-word, but meaningful line:
Fragment!
Probably these sort of one-word, one-liners don't come easily to mind, but our minds here are often easier than most. Not sure what I mean there.
Anyway, if you can think of famous one-word one-liners, it would be fun to read them--and please supply the context.
