William Shakespeare was an English poet, playwright and contemporary Renaissance actor. He has been an important member of the King's Men's theater company from 1594 on. Known all over the world, Shakespeare's writings draw on a range of human emotions and emotions and have been celebrated for over 400 years. And yet, William Shakespeare's personal life is a bit of a fantasy. There are two main sources that give historians the outline of his life. One is his work - plays, poems and watches - and the other is official documents such as church and court records. However, this provides only brief sketches of specific events in his life and provides little insight into the man himself.

QUOTES BY William Shakespeare


Wisely, and slow. They stumble that run fast.

“And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.”

Out, out, brief candle! Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Like madness is the glory of life.

God hath given you one face, and you make yourself another.

There is a tide in the affairs of men which, taken at the floud, leads on to fortune ommitted, all the voyage of their lives are bound in shallows and in miseries.

These violent delights have violent ends And in their triump die, like fire and powder Which, as they kiss, consume.
