Hot off the press...Tom Brady--the quarterback of the New England Patriots, attributed his great performances to some key passages he follows from the book The Inner Game Of Tennis.

To mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death, we asked leading actors to perform key speeches from his plays.

Here, Damian Lewis performs some of Antony’s lines in Julius Caesar. Antony has been granted permission to speak at Caesar’s funeral so long as he does not implicate the conspirators in his death, but he skilfully turns the crowd against them.
