Shakespeare Quote - "Strange Bedfellows"
Trinculo:
Legg'd like a man! and his fins like arms! Warm, o' my
troth! I do now let loose my opinion, hold it no longer:
this is no fish, but an islander, that hath lately suffer'd by a
thunder-bolt.
[Thunder.] Alas, the storm is come again! My best way is
to creep under his gaberdine; there is no other shelter hereabout:
misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows. I will here
shroud till the dregs of the storm be past.
The Tempest Act 2, Scene 2
