Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer the thousand ...
I'm thinking that I should've memorized more Shakespeare
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 them, end them.
Shakespeare, Hamlet
I took a lit class on Shakespeare to round out my language arts requirement at the university for my science degree. Love Shakespeare... can be fucking hilarious or deeply emotional and dark.
I also remember the lines because they were in Mel Brook's movie: To Be Or Not To Be.
