You Might be Quoting Shakespeare Without Realizing It!

Unbeknownst to Most, Many Modern Phrases were Coined by William Shakespeare

A man of words writing 37 plays and composing 154 sonnets, William Shakespeare created works that live on even centuries after they were written. Actually, Shakespeare never published any of his plays. Fellow actors John Hemminges and Henry Condell recorded Shakespeare's work as a dedication after his death. This collection called The First Folio is the source from which all published Shakespeare books originate. The collection serves as important proof that Shakespeare authored his plays. Although he did not publish his plays, Shakespeare dabbled in acting, performing in many of his own plays as well as those of other playwrights.
