Re: 30 lines of shakespeare
I don't know about the time needed to memorize this, personally I'm a big picture kind of guy, not necessarily keen on detail stuff like memorizing lots of text verbatum.
That being said, it really is a neat thing when someone can recite from memory a large quantity of text. I remember this guy back in our church about ten years ago who every Christmas did a recital of the entire Sermon on the Mount. He was a good speaker too so it was pretty powerful stuff sitting there actually hearing someone speak the words rather than just reading about it.
I say go ahead and work on it. If you learn it really well it will probably be something that sticks in your brain for a long time, giving you lots of opportunities to show off your mad skills.
