Shakespeare's siblings


Shakespeare, it’s hard to say something. about him, what wasn’t told 100 times before and so I will surrender before even trying.
I prefer writing about Shakespearean, and to precise about: Charles and Hulda Wallace.

This couple moved from America to London and searched for nearly 10 years in the Public Record Office for documents of Shakespeare. The most discoveries (and they hadn’t many) were unspectacular. And so they went back to America after these 10 years, nearly broke and with very strained nerves.

But much worse: Wallace was under the delusion that he could recognize spouters with his pure eyes and so he bought with his last money  a piece of land in Texas…

Well and the most unbelievable event occurred: He found oil and became damn rich!

And what’s the moral of that story?
Just read Shakespeare instead of books about business studies!



"Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."

William Shakespeare's Macbeth (act 5, scene 5)
