Koch polluter dead.......

"full of sound and furry signifying nothing" IS MOST CERTAINLY A LINE IN THAT PLAY/SCENE!

"Told by an idiot" preceded those words.

---

Ok I got the exact words wrong, but the sentiment is the same.

Life ends for both the good guy and bad guy.

And of course, the exact words don't matter when quoting a play.

-'Yo, Romeo - sup wid dat name?'

-'On this, our Shiny Cripple's Day!'

-'Etude, Brucius?'

-'Yon Cassilus has a mean and angry fork.'

-'Oh, beware, my lord, of jellybeans.'

For the record, MacBeth is lamenting the death of his wife, and is contemplating his own suicide.  THAT's what the passage means.

Boru

Yes it was a love story.

But the line itself was very intuitive about human existence.

Obama is a good man, Hitler was a monster. No love story there, but Obama won't live forever either.

Truck in Carol Sagan, "Pale Blue Dot"

"Flurry of activity signifying nothing"..... Applies to love, politics, religion, economics. Humans can argue over relationships in any of those contexts and we still all die.

I see the intent of that line to put focus on what is really important, how we  interact with each other while we are alive.

Even between you and I? I am sure you don't see me as evil, but I do know I drive you nuts. The great equalizer of nature is that the universe did not care about either of us 4 billion years ago, and will not care about either of us 10 billion years from now. 

That line was not some prediction based on scientific knowledge. Unlike the idiots who claim Thomas Aquinas knew about quantum mechanics. But regardless, Shakespeare while applying "there are no winners" to a love story, was still onto the reality that humans are finite. 

It was simply a very perceptive line, even if he had no way of knowing at the time how close to reality he was.

It isn't a love story, it is a cautionary tale about the consequences of ambition.

Please. Stop. Misquoting. Shakespeare.

I do remember in this thread the word "love" being used prior to my responses.

But call it "ambition" and I'd still agree.

Shakespeare was saying to the world, "It does not matter, we all die." 

You called it a "love story" now you are chalking it up to "ambition".

I could give a fuck less.

"Flurry of activity signifying nothing" applies to all of humanity. It does not mean life is meaningless, it just means humans need to pull their collective heads out of their asses.

Yeah, I never said it was a love story.  Stop making things up.

'Flurry of activity signifying nothing' doesn't appear in any Shakespeare play.

Do you have a slice of bread strapped to each ear?  I only ask because you're starting to sound like an idiot sandwich.
