Bruce’s Quotes

“I no longer believe that William Shakespeare the actor from Stratford was the author of the works that have been ascribed to him.”
― Sigmund Freud

“The life of Shakespeare is a fine mystery and I tremble every day lest something turn up.”
― Charles Dickens

“I cannot marry the facts of William Shakespeare to his verse: Other men had led lives in some sort of keeping with their thought, but this man is in wide contrast.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“I have never thought that the man of Stratford-on-Avon wrote the plays of Shakespeare.”
― Lewis F. Powell Jr.

“I am 'sort of' haunted by the conviction that the divine William is the biggest and most successful fraud ever practiced on a patient world.”
― Henry James
