Once experienced, who can forget the reasoning of Portia, the scheming of Richard III, the contradiction that is Hamlet, the calculated determination of Lady Macbeth, the jealousy of Othello, the ridiculousness of a lovesick and cross-gartered Malvolio, the wit of Beatrice and Benedick, the overbearing passion of Venus for Adonis, the forbidden love of Romeo and Juliet or the tragic vanity of King Lear?
