William Shakespeare (Уильям Шекспир)
All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts…
• To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them.
• Быть или не быть, вот в чем вопрос. Достойно ль
Смиряться под ударами судьбы,
Иль надо оказать сопротивленье
И в смертной схватке с целым морем бед
Покончить с ними?
