Every time I wade into a play or see a production, I discover the language that describes the human condition perfectly. Pithy moments of insight juxtaposed and embedded in meaningful testimonies of why we do the things we do. As a writer, I believe there is no better teacher of the magic of the English language.

Well, what can one say. Except that this is great literature, eternal literature, that contains multiple layers. Just like the New Testament, Shakespeare's literature to some extent is a puzzle to be laid. About the underlying story. And about the author himself. Because... who was he, really, the bard?
