On the sign:
from THE TEMPEST

Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
As I foretold you, were all spirits and
Are melted into air, into thin air;
And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,
The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,
The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.

-William Shakespeare

Comments:
Berklee’s poetry Walk was laid in October 2003 along Edison Street between Shattuck and Milvia Streets. The route includes 128 metal plates with excerpts from songs, each of which is related in one way or another to the city of Berkeley.

In the plate there is an excerpt from the play "The Tempest" by William Shakespeare (1616-1564), the greatest playwright in the English language.
The passage is in the fourth act, and is spoken by Prospero, Duke of Milan.
The connection between the section and Berkeley or California is not clear.
