    		They are all quotes from Shakespere plays...

    "All's Well That Ends Well" is the title of one of his comedies. So is "Much Ado About Nothing," which was turned into a hilarious movie with Kenneth Branagh.

    "Measure for Measure" is yet another play by Shakespere, though I'm not completly certain that it is a comedy. There are comic elements in the story, but overall, it seems to have the plot of a drama.
