Arrange the following famous lines of dramas in chronological order of their publication:
A. Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes, it's awful!
B. All the world's a stage And all the men and women merely players.
C. Come, violent death, / Serve for mandragora to make me sleep!
D. The last temptation is the greatest treason:/To do the right deed for the wrong reason.
E. Never speak disrespectfully of Society, Algernon. Only people who can't get into it do that
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
The lines identify As You Like It, The Duchess of Malfi, The Importance of Being Earnest, Murder in the Cathedral and Waiting for Godot. Their usual dramatic chronology gives B/C/E/D/A; however the first two were both first printed 1623, so publication alone does not strictly separate them.
