To be, or not to be; that is thebare bodkin That makescalamity of so long life; For
who would fardels bear, till
Birnam Wood do come toDunsinane, But that the fearof something after death
Murders the innocent sleep,Great nature's second
course, And makes us rathersling the arrows of outrageousfortune Than fly to others that
we know not of
To be, or not to be--that is thequestion:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind tosuffer
The slings and arrows of outrageousfortune
Or to take arms against a sea oftroubles
And by opposing end them. To die, tosleep--
No more--and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousandnatural shocks
That flesh is heir to, tis aconsummation
Devoutly to bewishd
