I do love this speech-

Hamlet, 1602, William Shakespeare.

Hamlet, 1602, William Shakespeare.

HAMLET:
To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, ’tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub;

Off to Berkeley on Thursday for a little R&R and then to Oregon on Friday for my mom’s birthday. Be dreamin’ of ya’s! Julia

    Love Hamlet and that especially that soliloquy. Don’t know why that one moves me.

    Anyway….enjoy birthday cake and R&R. Well deserved.
