"When I was a child in the 1940s, my mother would cut up slices of fruit for me (there wasn't much) and as she put it in front of me she would say, 'An apple a day keeps the doctor away,'" tweeted Stewart. "How about, 'A sonnet a day keeps the doctor away?' So, here we go: Sonnet 1."
Well, guess what? He's kept it going since then. And although Stewart hasn't quite managed one every day, he's still managed to work his way up to Sonnet 80 just in time for his 80th birthday on Monday.
"I had not realised that we were at a rather significant point in these sonnets. We just passed the halfway mark," says Stewart in a video posted Sunday. "There are still 74 to go. But not only are we at the halfway mark, we are at the point of Sonnet 80. And that has special meaning for me, because tomorrow, I am 80."
Happy birthday Patrick Stewart! 80
