ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE is a poem taken from the play "As you like it" by Shakespeare which reflects on our life and the role we play in it. He says that God has assigned us "seven roles" to play in our life just like professional actors playing their roles in a drama happening at a stage.
It is part of a monologue by Jacques. He proclaims that a Man plays "seven roles" in his life.
He goes through 7 stages. That is, Infancy, being a schoolboy, teenager, a Youth; probably a young soldier, a middle-aged man, when he is settled and is wise, and an old aged man. At the last stage, he becomes extremely old and is childish. We need to take care of them as they will become dependent on us just like a small kid. And that's how he ends his life.
