I found Hamlet’s monologue (lines 129-159) interesting. The lines that captured my attention were “Fie on’t! Ah fie! ‘Tis an unweeded garden‚/That grows to seed; things rank and gross in nature/Possess it merely.

Is it really more dignified to suffer through awful luck and fight through mounds of trouble than it is to end it all? Dying is basically sleeping‚ nothing more. A sleep that would end the heartache and shocks of life. That is a fulfillment to wish for. To die is to sleep and to sleep is to dream. That’s the catch.
