But when you realize that the stuff he wrote wayyyyyyyyyy back then is still applicable today, then one must admit to his genious, even though one may not stand him.


Just look how many adaptions of his works there are (both recent and not so recent).

West Side Story -- Romeo and Juliet

Throne of Blood -- Macbeth

Just to pick two examples....
