Shakespeare...inside-out!

Is there anyone amongst you who hasn't heard of the name William Shakespeare, even once? I don't think so...! William Shakespeare from Stratford-upon-Avon in Αγγλίας, was (and is still considered to be) one of the greatest playwrights and poets, not only in his country, but also in the whole world! 39 plays are officially recognised as his, with  "Romeo and Juliet", "A Midsummer Night's Dream", "The Merchant of Venice" and "Hamlet" being amongst the most well-known. I beg your pardon? You already knew these too?

Well, did you know that...:

1. ...nobody knows exactly when he was born? All we know is that he was christened on the 26th of April in 1564 and the historians, estimating that he was then 3 days old, considered the 23rd of April in 1564 to be his birth day!
2. ...he never went to University, but studied literature, Latin, Maths and Religion by himself throughout his life?
3. ...he used more than 25,000 different words in total in his works, while he also invented words of his own, such as the word "assassination"? People use about 2,000 words on average when they write or talk!
4. ...his wife and all of his three kids were illiterate? (!) They were unable to even read or write!
5. ...he died on the same day that is considered to be his birth day, on the 23rd of April in 1616?
