To be, or not to be, that is the question: 

Whether ’ this 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 heartache, and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to. ’ This a consummation Devoutly to be wished. To die — to sleep.

To sleep — perchance to dream: ay, there ’ s the rub!

For in that sleep of death what dreams may come When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause. There ’ s the respect That makes calamity of so long life. For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, The oppressor ’ s wrong, the proud man ’ s contumely, The pangs of despised love, the law ’ s delay, The insolence of office, and the spurns That patient merit of the unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? Who would these fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death — The undiscovered country, from whose bourn No traveler returns — puzzles the will, And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of?
