Blog #4

Hamlet is in discussion with himself on whether his life is worth living or not. Is it worth the Hardships. Or rather should he be dead taking a dirt nap. What will I be thinking of if i was down there.

The  quote "Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer" points out the tone of this Soliloquy

"Or to take arms against a sea of troubles"
" The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks"

"To die, to sleep-- To sleep-- perchance to dream"  this quote has the nature of a paradox of dreaming while dead.

The quote "For who would bear the whips and scorns of time," shows that Hamlet is making a pathos appeal. Cause he is asking the audience in a way is this the life you would want to live through.
