What they all have in common is that they are quotations from Shakespeare. But i'm not sure which is the odd one out ... perhaps Under the Greenwood Tree, which is a song sung by several members of the cast in As you Like it. The others are all spoken by one character.
For info: Gaudy Night - Ant & Cleo III ii
Sound & Fury - Macbeth V v
Brave New World - Tempest V i
Seeds of Time - Macbeth I iii
Richer than ... Othello V ii
Under the Greenwood Tree - As you Like it II v
