Subject: What a disappointing day
"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
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 V, Scene V, l. 18-27

I've rediscovered an appreciation for Shakespeare that has been lost over the past several years.

Yeah, that's why I can say "rediscovery" and not discovery. That is also the passage I had to memorize for Mrs. Millard's class.

It's weird to think, but 7th grade was seven years ago. Half way between where we are now and where we were when we first started school.

While Shakespeare was a genious, I don't think and Englishman has any right to write about a continental line of succession.
