i just wanted to write

I just happened to remember a quote of Shakespeare, " To be or Not To Be, that is the question". I was just happened to be very interested and deeply attracted by this quote and felt deeply inspired by it, hence went to google to search about it. Below are what i found : =D

About him ,
William Shakespeare was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as he greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist.

To Be or Not To Be - Hamlet, act 3, scene 1

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 heartache and the thousand natural shocks

That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep;

To sleep! perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;

For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,

When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,

Must give us pause: there's the respect

That makes calamity of so long life;

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,

The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,

The pangs of despis'd love, the law's delay,

The insolence of office, and the spurns

That patient merit of the unworthy takes,

When he himself might his quietus make

With a bare bodkin? who would these fardels bear,

To grunt and sweat under a weary life,

But that the dread of something after death,

The undiscover'd country, from whose bourn

No traveller returns, puzzles the will,

And makes us rather bear those ills we have

Than fly to others that we know naught of?

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;

And thus the native hue of resolution

Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought;

And enterprises of great pitch and moment,

With this regard, their currents turn awry,

And lose the name of action.

Another i just happened to came across, and i liked it very much.

"It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves."
-Shakespeare
