Spiritually forsoothing how dost thou celebrate Shakespeare's Birthday?

Verily this day is the birth of the Bard of Avon. How might we Lords and Ladies add to the merriment of such an occasion?

Add your favorite quote beloweth.

We few we happy few, we band of brothers

for he who sheds his blood with me is my brother

Be he ne'er so vile this day shall gentle his condition

And genetlemen in England now abed

shall hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks

who fought with us on St. Crispin's Day

Middle - thy protests are bootless!

Andrea - We Shakespeare geeks pretty much all think alike.

    Nay, it is ten times true; for truth is truth

    Strange, I just received an email about the very same thing about 10 minutes ago. Do I know you or do all Shakespeare fans act in a coordinated manner?

    Let's continue with phrases that have become classic phrases of English speech!

    What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how

    infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and

    admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like

    a god! the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals—and yet,

    to me, what is this quintessence of dust? Man delights not me—

    nor woman neither, though by your smiling you seem to say so.

  • And this relates to Religion and Spirituality, how?

    Do you think that starting your question with "Spiritually forsoothing" somehow legitimizes this as an R&S question?
