She should have died hereafter;
There would have been a time for such a word.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.— Macbeth (Act 5, Scene 5)
Patrick Stewart’s version of Macbeth is amazing: when plotting Banquo’s murder with two assassins, Macbeth casually begins to make a sandwich, giving two halves to the murderers. That is stone cold.
You can watch the whole play PBS Great Performances Macbeth for free, just don’t say the name of The Scottish Play in a theatre.
