Shakespeare had the talent to pose thoughtful questions and furnish even more profound answers. Regarded as the greatest writer in the English language, Shakespeare left a legacy of nothing less than masterfully crafted words of wisdom.
William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616) was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon, England. He was a renowned poet, playwright, and actor. Among Shakespeare’s finest works are titles such as “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, “Hamlet”, “Romeo and Juliet”, and “Macbeth”.
