Answer 3

"What the dickens?" is the equivalent of modern-day's "What the heck?" or "Say what?"

"A lean and hungry thing"  - did you perhaps mean "A lean and hungry look"? If so, Caesar meant by that he preferred men who were fat and satisfied, as the lean, hungry-looking types tended to be ambitious.

"To be or not to be, that is the question" - Hamlet was basically questioning if his own existence was worth continuing or whether death would be preferable.
