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
- William Shakespeare (Hamlet)
I could do the first line, but he went on to complete the paragraph.
Not only can Evan quote Shakespeare, he informed me that Macbeth is his favorite play. Can you guess why?
The kilts?
ReplyDeletedoes it have anything to do with war or scotland?
ReplyDeleteO Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name.
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
-Romeo and Juliet Act 2 Scene 2.
There's a longer speech but that's all I have memorized. lol

ReplyDeleteHigh School english class... didn't quite have a choice...
ReplyDeleteohh!
A gloomy peace this morning with it brings
The sun for sorrow will not show his head
go hence to have more talk of these sad things
so shall be pardoned and some punished
for never was there a story of more woe
than this of Juliet and her Romeo
lol

Jen & Maggie,
ReplyDeleteVery good job! Yes, it's about Scotland and Scottish folks and, they're killing each other which just adds to Evan's interest in the subject :)
