Artist's Comments

.. 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 heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to; 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep-
To sleep, perchance to dream - ay, there's the rub
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come...

.. and so on. yay for Shakespeare. why can't I read Hamlet like a normal person? I wonder if I should give this a mature content label for the corpse, heh. just tell me, I will, no problem. somehow imagining Johnny ripping someone's skull out just to soliloquy is just... yeah. I'm aware that Hamlet doesn't have a skull in that scene, at least in my text... but you recognize it right away, yes? I could just see Nny saying something like that speechy thing. but once again I'm weird. I like Hamlet. he's spiffy.

.... yeah, it's 4:30 in the morning.

I've always loved that soliloquy, and what a fabulous accompanying picture.
