Celebrating the Spoken Word: "Let me not to the marriage of true minds"

Since today is the birthday of The Bard of Avon, what better way to celebrate the spoken word that to hear one of Shakespeare's sonnets?

In an appearance on The Dick Cavett Show, Sir Lawrence Olivier is enticed to recite a poem. He chooses Shakespeares's Sonnet 116 from memory. The recitation begins around minute 4:40; a true model of effective oral interpretation.
