Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Shakespeare didn't work at all for me.
Though language forms the preacher, 'Tis good works make the man.
Boy, if Garth Ennis had created a religion, I would sure like to be a part of that. It just makes sense, the way he tackles things in it. It's really heavy stuff and it's incredibly well written.

Shakespeare will not make us better, and he will not make us worse, but he may teach us how to overhear ourselves when we talk to ourselves... he may teach us how to accept change in ourselves as in others, and perhaps even the final form of change.

You never get the Shakespeares right. It's not possible.
