The great master who knew everything...an unspeakable source of delight
Charles Dickens
Every age has reinvented the Bard in its own image. Renaissance Man or post-modern angst... Shakespeare haunts our language
Independent
Shakespeare was the most consummate genius of all time
Peter Ackroyd
Dante and Shakespeare divide the modern world between them, there is no third
T.S. Eliot
Every single character in Shakespeare is as much an Individual as those in Life itself
Alexander Pope
Shakespeare is the best thing that ever happened to this country
Roy Hattersley
Shakespeare modernised the form of the sonnet, and transformed it from a stylised, courtly love shtick to a fluent and flexible form that could turn itself to any subject
Don Paterson, Guardian
