About This Quote
William Shakespeare said, "Yet some there be that by due steps aspire / To lay their just hands on that golden key / That opes the palace of Eternity. To such my errand is." He was talking about people who are willing to do things in a lawful way. They are the ones who have followed the proper steps to get to where they want to go. Of course, most people will not be able to do this because they lack education or poor morals. They are stuck in their stations in life rather than progressing.
