More From William Shakespeare

Virginia woolf wrote, "across the broad continent of a woman's life falls the shadow of a sword." on one side of that sword, she said, there lies convention and tradition and order, where all is correct. but on the other side of that sword, if you're crazy enough to cross it and choose a life that does not follow convention, "all is confusion." nothing follows a regular course. her argument was that the crossing of the shadow of that sword may bring a more interesting existence to a woman, but you can bet it will be more perilous.
Crazy Lying Fall
Said one oyster to a neighboring oyster, "i have a very great pain within me. it is heavy and round and i am in distress." and the other oyster replied with haughty complacence, "praise be to the heavens and to the sea, i have no pain within me. i am well and whole both within and without." at that moment a crab was passing by and heard the two oysters, and he said to the one who was well and whole both within and without, "yes, you are well and whole; but the pain that your neighbor bears is a pearl of exceeding beauty."

It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor. would you be mine? could you be mine?... it's a neighborly day in this beauty wood, a neighborly day for a beauty. would you be mine? could you be mine?... i've always wanted to have a neighbor just like you. i've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you. so, let's make the most of this beautiful day. since we're together we might as well say: would you be mine? could you be mine? won't you be my neighbor? won't you please, won't you please? please won't you be my neighbor?

We have become too civilized to grasp the obvious. for the truth is very simple. to survive you often have to fight, and to fight you have to dirty yourself. war is evil, and it is often the lesser evil. those who take the sword perish by the sword, and those who don't take the sword perish by smelly diseases.
War Dirty Fighting
You named your sword fire? fire? what kind of a boring name is that? you might as well name your sword 'blazing blade' and be done with it. fire indeed. humph. wouldn't you rather have a sword called sheepbiter or chrysanthemum cleaver or something else with imagination?

For my omniscience paid i toll in infinite remorse of soul. all sin was of my sinning, all atoning mine, and mine the gall of all regret. mine was the weight of every brooded wrong, the hate that stood behind each envious thrust, mine every greed, mine every lust. and all the while for every grief, each suffering, i craved relief with individual desire, – craved all in vain! and felt fierce fire about a thousand people crawl; perished with each, — then mourned for all!
