Shakespeare, the Bard, the master of prose and poetry, gifted us with lines that resonate centuries later. Choosing the *best* is a Herculean task, but some shine brighter than others.
Who can forget the poignant contemplation of mortality in Hamlet's "To be, or not to be, that is the question"? Or the timeless advice from Polonius, "This above all: to thine own self be true"? Romeo's passionate cry, "But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!" encapsulates the intensity of young love.
Beyond individual lines, Shakespeare's brilliance lies in his ability to capture universal human emotions. Whether it's Macbeth's descent into madness, Othello's consuming jealousy, or the comedic misunderstandings in *A Midsummer Night's Dream*, his words paint vivid pictures of the human condition. Exploring these lines is like unlocking a treasure trove of wisdom and beauty, proof that Shakespeare's genius remains eternally relevant. Which line resonates most with *you*?
