To celebrate the poet and playwright's birthday, here is actor Matthew Macfadyen (aka. Mr. Darcy to Keira Knightley's Lizzie Bennet in "Pride & Prejudice) reciting Sonnet 29. His voice is so deep, rich, measured, and emotive. He really makes Shakespeare beautiful and mysterious and alive.

Video: Sonnet 29 by William Shakespeare
April 26 is a special day. Not only are some of my best friends born on this day, but the legendary British bard known as Shakespeare was baptized on this day in 1564. No one knows for certain when he was born, but I'd like to think it was today.
