This week, I want to look at how one person’s thought’s and ideas can change the world… even in small ways.  For that, we’re going to have a chat with the most famous of all playwrights, William Shakespeare. 

Everyone know’s who Shakespeare is, and if you’re old enough, you’ve been forced to read at least one of his works in your English Literature class.  “Why?”, you ask.  “We don’t talk like that any more.”  To that, I say – “No one talks like Dr. Seuss either.” It’s not about the style of his writing, though I’m sure you were forced to learn all about iambic pentameter. 

Back in the day, everyone understood Shakespeare, just like you understand what’s going on in the latest episode of Glee.  You may not remember the every song in the episode, but things stick with you.  Shakespeare managed that, too.  Let’s look at some things Shakespeare said, that you use every day.
