William Shakespeare was born in April 1564 in the picturesque english town of Stratford upon Avon. All that is known of Shakespeare's youth is that possibly he attended the Stratford Grammar School, but suprisingly for a man of his intellect did not go on to attend university at Oxford or Cambridge. The next record we have of William is his marriage to Anne Hathaway in 1582. The next year she bore a daughter for him, Susanna, followed by the twins Judith and Hamnet two years later.During his illustrious acting and writing career Shakespeare performed in front of thousands of people in theatres across England, his plays even watched by the King himself. He was a prodigious and prolific playwright, utterly dedicated to his art, indeed he was writing right up until the day of his death on his birthday in 1616. He was only 52 years old.
Some of William Shakespeare's famous quotations: "Summer's lease hath all too short a date."
"I wasted time, and now doth time waste me."
"God be praised, that to believing souls gives light in darkness, comfort in despair"
