“I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano, A stage where every man must play a part, And mine a sad one.”
“All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages.”
“The world is a stage and the play is badly cast.”
“The world is a stage, but the play is badly written.”
“You are prominent! Play your role on the world stage.”
“I live in different worlds. One world where I perform my duty as a part of society. My favorite is my world. The writing's world.”
