Shakespeare-quote in Rosa-story

Hi all
The other day a dear friend of mine was reading aloud to me, rehearsing
for a retorics-test - she read Hamlet, and the line: "Frailty, thy name
is woman", rang a large bell in my head. I remember a story where
Scrooge says (after translation back into english) Lazyness, thy name
is Donald, or the like. I want to find that story, which is a Rosa-one,
I'm sure, for both her and a fellow friend who's also crazy about
Shakespeare (and her little sister is so crazy about Donald that she
makes quizzes for the family where they have to know the Barks- from
the Rosa-stories :-)) )

Please do help - where does it say the like - should be possible if the
translator in your country is honest - and tell me here on the list (or
to anders_sivebaek at nns.dk as this mira-adress is only readbale from
where I will not be longer than till 6.30 pm today.)

Other Shakespeare quote or references would be interesting too. I know
that the two theatre stories by Barks, must be referring to Romeo and
Juliet, allthough I've never read that play, only as an italian
parodia-pocketbook.
