    lets see if we can finish the soliloquy WITHOUT consulting our textbooks or the internet.

    *NO CHEATING*

    C'mon leaving cert class of 2000

    anyway...

    'whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or to take arms against a sea of...em, something...and by opposing them'

    Yeah they've definitely dumbed down the leaving cert.

    For shame

    I did Macbeth for the Leaving.

    "Out out brief candle
    Life is but a walking shadow
    ......something............
    It is a tale told by an idiot
    ....something.......
    signifying nothing."

    Hey, I still remember it! :)

    Now cracks a noble heart. Good night sweet prince, And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

    My favorite line from Hamlet, probably. So pretty.

    Can't remember most of the soliloquys (or is it soliloquies?) but I can still remember the funny quotes from 'The Scottish Play'

    "What? You egg,
    Young fry of treachery"

    "The devil damn thee black
    Thou cream fac'd loon"

    "How now you secret black and midnight hags?"
