In high school it was a challenge for me to even comprehend the Cliff Notes versions of Shakespeare.

Maybe it was all the pot. I know now that he documented universal human behaviors and foibles. He would have a field day with our current president.

I was brought up in a family that read the King James Version of the Holy Bible and that used “Thee” and “Thou” during prayers, so Shakespeare never did present much of a problem to me. The English is contemporaneous.
