Avenge His Fathers Murder Rosencrantz And Guildenstern
1,969 wordsI am but mad north-north-west: when the wind is southerly I know a hawk from a handsaw (2. 2. 338 - 9). This is a classic example of the wild and whirling words (1. 5. 133) with which Hamlet hopes to persuade people to believe that he is mad.

Avenge His Fathers Murder Moral Beliefs
1,124 wordsTo die, would be to abandon this garden suffocated by weeds. To take ones life, is to alleviate turmoil from the heart. Although extremely tempting, Hamlet cannot, therefore will not commit suicide. For he believes God had fixed / his canon gains self-slaughter! (line 131 - 132 p. 166). With this in his mind he drags his burden deeper and deeper into a pit of agony.
