English poet, playwright and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's greatest dramatist
I like this place and willingly could waste my time in it

When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions
I will speak daggers to her, but use none

I have never considered myself a poet. I have no interest in poetic artistry
