10 lines of verse. You can read them quickly in under a minute. And yet they expand containing legends and the very depth of the human condition. So much is possible in 10 lines of verse. See here as the greatest actor of our time performs them (below) and his equally talented peer analyzes them
Macbeth:
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.
The performance:
The analysis:
A Life of Wonder
