If you enjoy reading about Shakespeare, you may enjoy this post about he died a nobody and his works then got famous almost by accident or this list of Shakespearean insults!

    Thanks, Nicholas. I’ve heard these sayings but didn’t know they all came from Shakespeare. 🙂 — Suzanne

    Thanks, Nicholas. I knew a few of these, but great to see so many more. Can’t beat ‘a bit of Will’! 🙂
    Best wishes, Pete.
