“Stop making dramas, you’re not Shakespeare”

“Stop making drama(s), you’re not Shakespeare” is a jocular saying that has been printed on many images. The term “emotional drama” is usually implied, but a drawing of English playwright William Shakespeare (1564-1616) is usually shown on T-shirts with this saying.

Wikipedia: William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare (bapt. 26 April 1564 – 23 April 1616) was an English playwright, poet and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world’s pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England’s national poet and the “Bard of Avon” (or simply “the Bard”). His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, three long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.
