HAMLET Then is doomsday near: but your news is not true.
Let me question more in particular: what have you, my good friends, deserved at the hands of fortune, that she sends you to prison hither? GUILDENSTERN Prison, my lord! HAMLET Denmark's a prison. ROSENCRANTZ Then is the world one. HAMLET A goodly one; in which there are many confines, wards and dungeons, Denmark being one o' the worst. ROSENCRANTZ We think not so, my lord. HAMLET Why, then, 'tis none to you; for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so: to me it is a prison. Hamlet's point of view on the world is shown in this quote. He considersthe world as a prison,unable to act on his emotions, he is forced tolet them build. The world is a prison in a way for socityes laws chain up a persons super ego. The want that lives in every one is put away because it is" unexceptable" to display in society, but that is human nature which explains why human are not perfect. They are just not perfect for society.Hamlet in return is left with revange in his heart that is not able to bring about justice on his murdous uncle. which in turn would have saved the life of three other inocent victums.
