William Shakespeare lived from 1564-1616 and made his home in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon in England.
It is a beautiful town on a river with a very artistic and rustic feel about the place.

his house
The Globe Theatre was built in London, England, in 1599. It was owned by Shakespeare’s acting company, The Lord Chamberlain’s Men.
Many of Shakespeare’s plays were originally performed here, all the way until the Puritans ordered the Globe to close its doors in 1642.

his work
Green-eyed Monster
A method to my madnessA spotless reputation
For goodness sakeGood riddance
A wild goose chase
Knock knock…who’s there?
Kill all the lawyers.Too much of a good thing
Have seen better days
Wearing your heart on your sleeve
The world’s my oyster.
Put your best foot forward.Breaking the ice.
All’s well that ends well.As luck would have it
Breathed his lastRefused to budge an inch
Every dog will have his day.
The devil incarnateEating me out of house and home
Elbow room
famous sayings
A foregone conclusion
Heart of goldComing full circle
In a pickleKill with kindness
It was Greek to me. What’s done is done.Own flesh and blood
As obvious as the nose on your faceSeen better days
The long and short of itSet my teeth on edge
Laughing stock
Melted into thin airLove is blind
Couldn’t sleep a winkOut of the jaws of death
There’s no such thing.
Send someone packingA sorry sight
To thine own self be true.What the dickens?
