And you hate everyone. And you hate yourself. And you hate everything. And your so filled with hate that you just want to end

Hamlet - a villain and a hero. Hamlet comes across as both a hero and a villain throughout ‘Hamlet’ at different intervals.

We want to know at exactly what moment in time this character decided to be “evil.” We want to be able to relate to the villain because we have realized we can no longer relate to the hero.
