William Shakespeare

Verily, 'tis a question that perplexeth me. Forsooth, what can I say that hath not already been said? Methinks, 'tis a conundrum of which I must find the answer! Perchance, I shall seek solace in the stars, or in the depths of the sea, for 'tis there I may find the answer I seek. Nay, I will not be deterred by such a challenge! I shall embrace it with open arms and a willing heart. To the words I shall commit, and the ink I shall spill, for I shall find the answer to this mystery. Lo, I have taken up the gauntlet and cast it aside. 'Tis not a task for the faint of heart, yet I shall not be moved. I shall take the challenge and make it my own, for 'tis the only way to find the answer. Alas, I have come to the end of my journey. I have pondered long and hard, and I think I have found the answer. 'Tis to laugh, to enjoy life, and to never take anything too seriously. For, in the end, 'tis the only way to truly live.
