记得有人说过如果认真研读过莎士比亚,there weren't be a day that goes by that you weren't quote him.
最近脑子里都是那句“tomorrow, tomorrow and tomorrow, creeps in this petty pace from day to day”,所以找出来Macbeth认真看一遍。以下仅为摘抄:
(未完待续)
1
Stars, hide your fires,
Let not light see my black and deep desires
2
Come, you spirits that tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here
And fill me from the crown to the toe top full of direct cruelty!
Make thick my blood
Stop up the access and passage to remorse
That no compunctious visitings of nature
Shake my fell purpose, nor keep peace between the effect and it!
Come to my woman’s breast, and take my milk for gall
You murdering ministers,
Wherever in your sightless substances, you wait on nature’s mischief!
Come, thick night
And pall thee in the funnest smoke of hell
That my keen knife see not the wound it makes
Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark
To cry “Hold, hold!”
3
And I feel now the future in the instant
4
Was the hope drunk wherein you dress’d yourself?
Hath it slept since? And wakes it now, to look so green and pale and what it did so freely ?
From this time such I account thy love
Art thou feared to the same in thine own act and valour as thou art in desire?
Wouldst thou have that which thou esteem’st the ornament of life,
And live a coward in thine own esteem,
Letting “I dare not” wait upon “I would”, Like the poor cat i’the’ adage?
5
If we should fail?
We fail!
But screw your courage to the sticking place, and we will not fail
6
Bring forth men children only,
For thy undaunted mettle should compose nothing but males.
Will it not be received
7
Away, and mock the time with fairest show
False face must hide with the false heart doth know
