Some of his works include Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Twelth Night, Hamlet, Midsummer's Night Dream, Macbeth, King Lear, and Othello

william shakespeare

Wrote plays such as Romeo and Juliet, Julius Ceasar, A midsummer's night dream, Macbeth, Hamlet, Merchant of Venice, and the Temptest.

"To be or not to be, --that is the question:--
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them?"

-- From Hamlet (III, i, 56-61)
