An absolutely joyous, gasp-out-loud achievement. - Stephen Fry
A cathedral of consciousness - Shakespeare''s uncanny insight into human nature finds us, unearthed here.
- LionHeart, artist, poet, and BBC Radio London presenter
Shakespeare had an ear and hand that was able to capture our everyday thoughts and emotions, pin them to a page, and express them so well that still today they can make us feel stunned to be seen.
''Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.''
''Make not your thoughts your prisons.''
''Wisely and slowThey stumble that run fast.''
''And I have heard it said, unbidden guests are often welcomest when they''re gone.''
With a quote for every day of the year, this beautiful book gathers the finest lines from the lesser-known corners of Shakespeare''s plays and poemsWhile you may not be familiar with these 400-year-old phrases, you will be surprised by the immediate, easy resonance they have with modern day-to-day life and, hopefully, inspired to learn a few quotes, say them out loud, and drop them into conversation.
Each page bears a gift of Shakespearean delight - around which lies a treasure trove of trivia, miscellaneous fact, and opportunities for reflection
The Crystals - son and father - draw attention to points of daily life, literary, linguistic, and theatrical interest through their entertaining commentary. They offer notes of context for anyone who wants to know who originally said the words, in which play, and whyAnd finally, the authors provide three indexes, allowing readers to help find the right quote for a task, or to follow-up on a quote''s original source.
Shakespeare''s words are a mirror for us to peer into, to see if any part of ourselves, familiar or strange, is visibleEach day as you read his lines, you''ll get glimpses of loves you''ve known, jealousies you''ve felt, relationships you''ve had, and situations you''ve encountered that bring a smile - or a wince - of familiarity.
Everyday Shakespeare shares the simple lines that encapsulate the wondrous complexity of life, and the enduring appeal of the Bard.
