Quotes about him

[edit | edit source]
  •  

He is of no age — nor, I may add, of any religion, or party, or profession. The body and substance of his works came out of the unfathomable depths of his own oceanic mind.

  — Samuel Taylor Coleridge[1]
  •  

He was not only a great poet, but a great philosopher.
 

  — Samuel Taylor Coleridge [2]
  •  

The true description of us is the complex, ever-changing pattern of interactions of billions of them [neurons]... The abbreviated and approximate shorthand that we employ every day to describe human behavior is a smudged caricature of our true selves. "What a piece of work is a man!" said Shakespeare. Had he been living today he might have given us the poetry we so sorely need to celebrate all these remarkable discoveries.
 

  Francis Crick[3]
  •  

The souls most fed with Shakespeare's flame
Still sat unconquered in a ring,
Remembering him like anything.

  — G. K. Chesterton[4]
