Who said it?

Who said: "Let me have men about me who are fat…"? Very often the answer to that question comes back “Caesar” or “Julius Caesar”. Actually the quote comes from the play Julius Caesar. Those famous words were put in the character’s mouth by none other than William Shakespeare. I doubt Willy is spinning in his grave when he fails to get credit for this great line. More likely, he would smile to realize he created a character so believable we think the Roman emperor actually said what the writer imagined.
