What Shakespeare thought of Celebrity.

Author and Spiritual Teacher Eckhart Tolle has helped me understand a little better the lunacy of our celebrity culture.

“Most of the people who are in positions of power in this world, such as politicians, TV personalities, business as well as religious leaders, are completely identified with their role, with few notable exceptions. They may be considered VIP’s, but they are no more unconscious players in the egoic game, a game that looks so important yet is ultimately devoid of true purpose. It is, in the words of Shakespeare, “a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” “
