About This Quote

William Shakespeare said: "He danced with the sky instead, and the sky dropped him like a rotten plum." In this quote he speaks of the foolish and foolish thing we do when we try to get things our way. The sky did not drop him like a rotten plum because he did something wrong. It dropped him because he never tried to take control of his own life and allowed others to do so instead.
