We all had such larks. yes, it was hard work but the friendships and the genuine respect we had for one another, that side i shall miss greatly. i've stopped acting, but i don't think i've finished using my voice. i could, and probably will, record the whole of shakespeare's sonnets. they live at the side of my bed and are my constant companions.

More From Peter O'Toole

Shakespeare wrote his sonnets within a strict discipline, fourteen lines of iambic pentameter, rhyming in three quatrains and a couplet. were his sonnets dull? mozart wrote his sonatas within an equally rigid discipline - exposition, development, and recapitulation. were they dull?.

All the unimaginative assholes in the world who imagine that shakespeare couldn't have written shakespeare because it was impossible from what we know about shakespeare of stratford that such a man would have had the experience to imagine such things - well, this denies the very thing that separates shakespeare from almost every other writer in the world: an imagination that is untouchable and nonstop.
