To be, or not to be- that is the question: Whether it's 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. It's 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 despised love, the law's delay, the insolence of office, and the spurns that patient merit of th 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 undiscovered 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 not 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 pith and moment with this regard their currents turn away and lose the name of action. 莎士比亚的名言（中英文对照） Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.-Shakespeare 宁为聪明的愚夫，不作愚蠢的才子。－莎士比亚 A light heart lives long . 豁达者长寿。 (英国剧作家莎士比亚.
