hamlet 1

hamlet should be a comedy because man him, with his silly little puns and sass...

King: "But now, my cousin Hamlet, and my son—

"Hamlet: "A little more than kin, and less than kind."

King: "How is it that the clouds hang on you?"

Hamlet: "Not so, my lord, I am too much in the sun"

--

Later in the play

Hamlet to Claudius: "Farewell, dear mother."

the aeneid 1

you know how sometimes people are like, growing up is understanding squidward or eeyore?

well I kind of felt like that with turnus. because at first I'm like- Why are you starting a war? Why are you trying to prevent something that's inevitable when it's been written in the fates?

But then he says this:

"Arrogant foe, it is not your heated words which affright me. I fear only God's, and especially the hostility of Jove."

And you know it's because of fate that Troy must fall and why Laocoon and his son were killed by serpants because he was too close to the truth, and why Creusa had to die so he could marry again.

But there's something so admirable about fighting against fate because of how cruel it can be to those it doesn't favour. So maybe I warmed up to Juno and Turnus a bit because of that, and who could blame me?

how do you get a baby over a river? Do you:

A: float them across in a basket

B: hold them above your head while you wade through

C: side stroke

D: TIE THEM TO A SPEAR AND THROW THEM OVER

-

"He took his daughter and first wrapped her closely in the pith and bark from a cork-tree in the forest. Then he lashed her to the spear-shaft in the middle to preserve balance. And now, posing the spear in his strong right hand, he raised his voice to heaven: "Kindly Maid, Latona' daughter, dweller in the woodlands, I, her own father, vow this my daughter to you to be your handmaid. Holding your weapon, the first which she has ever held, she flees from her foes and is your supplant. Goddess, I implore you, accept for your own her who is now entrusted to the uncertainty of a gust of wind." As he spoke, he drew back his arm, and he cast the spinning spear-shaft; the waters roared; and over the tearing River flew Camillia, helpless on the whistling spear. Metabus, with the enemy in great numbers now almost upon him, flung himself into the stream, and soon, having found his way across, he wrested from the grassy turf the spear with the little girl tied to it: the gift which he had now given to Diana."

-XI. 540-68

Aeneas: *Stays in Carthage with Dido, stopping him from going to Italy to fulfill his destiny*

Venus: *surprised Pikachu face*

(Jupiter finds out so he sends Mercury to Aeneas to get him off his ass)

Mercury: What are you? A beta male? A house husband who stays at home and heats up the bath for his wife?

Aeneas: No! *drops to his knees* I don't want to be a beta house husband!

Aeneas: *Sets sail immediatly* Hm I wonder what that smoke is, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact I just abandoned this person who totally thought we were married and was in love with me.

incorrect hamlet 3

Queen: Your sister drowned

Laertes: Where?

Queen: [a very detailed account of her death]

Laertes: So you were there?

Queen: Yes?

Laertes: THEN WHY IN THE FUCK DID YOU NOT SAVE HER?

Queen: I didn't want to get wet.

-

"Your sister's drowned, Laertes."

"Drown'd? O, where?"

"There is a willow grows askant the brook // That shows his hoary leaves in the glassy stream. // Therewith fantastic garlands did she make // Of crow-flowers, nettles, daisies, and long purples, // That liberal shepherds give a grosser name, // But our cold maids do dead men's fingers call them. // There on the pendant boughs her crowned weeds // Clamb'ring to hang, an envious sliver broke, // When down her weedy trophies and herself // Fell in the weeping brook. Her clothes spread wide, // And mermaid-like awhile they bore her up, // Which time she chanted snatches of old lauds, // As one incapable of her own distress, // Or like a creature native and indued // Unto that element. But long it could not be // Till that her garments, heavy with their drink, // Pulled the poor wretch from her melodious lay // To muddy death.

-IV, VII, 164-183
