"If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?"
"Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?"
"Thou shouldst not have been old till thou hadst been wise."
"I am not bound to please thee with my answer."
"The world is grown so bad that wrens make prey where eagles dare not perch."
English playwright and poet whose 39 plays and 154 sonnets are the most-performed and most-translated body of work in world literature. Closely associated with Christopher Marlowe (early Elizabethan rival) and Ben Jonson (later contemporary, friendly rival, and his first eulogist). For an intellectual contrast, see the Puritan stage-banning movement, the English Christian campaign against the theater — Puritans agitated against playhouses throughout Shakespeare's career and finally closed all London theaters in 1642 after the Civil War — they remained shut for 18 years. Shakespeare's career thrived in the brief Elizabethan-Jacobean window between religious tolerance and Puritan ascendancy.
