Nobody.

William Shakespeare however said:

"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages."

As said before, William Shakespeare said it .... I belive in "All's Well That Ends Well" though I could be wrong on that. Though I do agree that you wrote an interpertation of the quote instead of the actual quote. So as to the answer to your question, you said "life is but a stage and every man but an actor"

If we could see ourselves as every part in a play, which I do when I perform puppetry,then you could see the reason why we can love every part, love the contrast. How else could I write interesting scripts? Love your enemy, yourself, and you will understand your life as a stage so perfectly written and waiting for you to wake up and consciously play your parts. Yes, learn to enjoy being humiliated for your performances. What else could you possibly be fearing that could keep you from being the your own shining star?.

The answer's been said so I'll only say you should give RUSH a go if you're gonna be tapping people on that.

"All the world's indeed a stage
And we are merely players:
Performers and portrayers,
Each another's audience
Outside the gilded cage."
-RUSH, Limelight

Very good answers from 6000 year immortal and Krishprud. 1) All the world's a stage: Shakespeare's 'As you Like It', Act II, Scene VII, lines 139-166 "All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first, the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms. Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard, Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lined, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slippered pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side; His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything." This famous monologue is spoken by Jaques. It contains arresting imagery and figures of speech to develop the central metaphor: a person's lifespan being a play in seven acts. These acts, "seven ages," begin with "the infant/Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms" and work through six further vivid verbal sketches, culminating in "second childishness and mere oblivion,/Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything." The man in the poem goes through these stages: Infancy: In this stage he is a baby Childhood: It is in this stage that he begins to go to school. The lover: In this stage he is always remorseful due to some reason or other, especially the loss of love. He tries to express feelings through song or some other cultural activity. The soldier: It is in this age that he thinks less of himself and begins to think more of others. He is always working towards making a reputation for himself and gaining recognition. The justice: In this stage he has acquired wisdom through the many experiences he has had in life. He has reached a stage where he has gained prosperity and social status. Old age: He begins to lose his charm — both physical and mental. Mental dementia and death: He loses his status and he becomes a non-entity. He becomes dependent on others like a child and is in need of constant support before finally dying. 2) Hinduism and recurring drama in every four yugas: Entire universe is the stage! All are actors only!! Play, Screenplay, Dialogue, Direction are premeditated by God-head! After every Four yugas re-staged! AUDIENCE is Para Brahmam! Para Brahmam pervades the Universe!! The stage is so big and the actors are infinite in number and Para Brahmam (God-head) alone can see. 'purusha evedagam sarvam' (Purusha Sukta, Verse 2) means 'All this is verily the Purusha' 'Isavasyam idam sarvam' ( Isavasya Upanishad, opening phrase) means 'All this manifest Universe is enveloped by the Divine, God-head. There is a colloquial saying 'எல்லாவற்றையும் அவன் பார்த்துக்கொண்டு இருக்கிறான்' means '(One can not do evil to anybody secretly because) God-head is SEEING everything!' Kamba Ramayanam, First Verse: "உலகம் யாவையும் தாமுள வாக்கலும் நிலை பெறுத்தலும் நீக்கலும் நீங்கலா அலகிலா விளையாட்டுடையார் அவர் தலைவர் அன்னவர்க்கே சரண் நாங்களே" God is the Creator, Preserver and Destroyer. Kampan says that God-head plays an immense game in which He makes all the worlds, preserves them and dismisses them. 3) Where is the audience sitting? omnipresent, adj. = Present everywhere simultaneously. "அணுவிற்கு அணுவாய் அப்பாலுக்கு அப்பாலாய் கணுமுற்றி நின்ற கரும்புள்ளே காட்டி" (விநாயகர் அகவல்) 65-66 Smaller than the smallest and larger than the largest, (God-head) stands similar to (sugar) inside of a ripened sugar cane. ( Vinayagar Agaval) )

Shakespeare.

I don't remember the exact quote but it goes something like "all the world is a stage and we are but players, we have our entrances and our exits..."

It's from act 2 of "as you like it"
