  3. I hope this answers your question. The following is a speech from Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. It is the most famous ridiculous botched up version of Hamlet's soliloquy that I know about. I think this is what you mean by a misquote.

    --------------------------------------...

    To be, or not to be; that is the bare bodkin

    That makes calamity of so long life;

    For who would fardels bear, till Birnam Wood do

    come to Dunsinane,

    But that the fear of something after death

    Murders the innocent sleep,

    Great nature's second course,

    And makes us rather sling the arrows of outrageous fortune

    Than fly to others that we know not of.

    There's the respect must give us pause:

    Wake Duncan with thy knocking! I would thou couldst;

    For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,

    The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,

    The law's delay, and the quietus which his

    pangs might take,

    In the dead waste and middle of the night,

    when churchyards yawn

    In customary suits of solemn black,

    But that the undiscovered country from whose

    bourne no traveler returns,

    Breathes forth contagion on the world,

    And thus the native hue of resolution, like

    the poor cat i' the adage,

    Is sicklied o'er with care,

    And all the clouds that lowered o'er our housetops,

    With this regard their currents turn awry,

    And lose the name of action.

    'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished.

    But soft you, the fair Ophelia:

    Ope not thy ponderous and marble jaws,

    But get thee to a nunnery -- go!

    --------------------------------------...

    If you want a short misquote try

    "He is trying to guild the Lily" is a standard idiom meaning:

    "To further decorate something already beautiful"

    The actual quote from Shakespeare is:

    "To gild refined gold, to paint the lily"
