You either love or hate Shakespeare. I'm in the love him camp, and have been since I first read Julius Caesar in high school. Quite simply, there's been few playwrights with his sustained genius, and few greater writers. His way with a word, a well placed phrase, is sheer genius, and there's something for everyone in his plays -- love, loss, war, peace, the spiritual, the comedic, etc. I can't claim to have read all of his plays, but I'm close. Once you understand ebb and flow of his writing, it's hard to go back... MIT's got all of his plays on-line...
