William Shakespeare wrote in Romeo and Juliet, “What’s in a name?” Apparently, a lot if your name is Bill. The Book of Bill is Tom Crisp’s fun follow-up to The Book of Bob, the ultimate famous-Bob quotation book.

Now it is Bill’s turn with fun quotes from fictitious, historical, and pop culture Bills. From Shakespeare to Clinton, we hear great quotes right from the mouth of Bill.

It’s the perfect gift for all the Bills and Williams in our lives, and there are a lot of them. Last count, there were over 4 million Williams in the United States. It’s the fourth most popular name.
