The Sonnets of Shakespeare have the fascination of an autobiography, without its clarity. It is like reading an important document in a cave by the light of matches which keep blowing out.
I don't think I'm like Shakespeare.
I have good reason to be content, for thank God I can read and perhaps understand Shakespeare to his depths.
When Xena finished I just really wanted to work with Shakespeare's material.
I'm working now on a collection of Shakespearean sonnets, about 100 of them, that I may publish if anyone's interested. My take on life is a little different from the bard's.
Christopher Marlowe or Francis Bacon The author of Lear remains unshaken Willie Herbert or Mary Fitton What does it matter? The Sonnets were written.
I think William Shakespeare was the wisest human being I ever heard of. To be perfectly frank, though, that's not saying much.
Dead shepherd, now I find thy saw of might. Whoever lov'd that lov'd not at first sight.
Working on Shakespeare and learning about Shakespeare was the big takeaway for me.
I like Shakespeare, but I never know what the hell is going on.
