despair is a package inspired by Shakespeare’s work and
his well-known pessimism. It allows the user to create short, clever
codes called bard–bits inspired by Shakespeare’s work and use daily
demotivational quotes for personal use or to share with others.
You can install this package on CRAN
install.packages("despair")You can also install the development version of this package through
the devtools package.
