青年莎士比亚

【Episode 1】
「Better to die righteous than to burn for fear.」

「Who are you? → No one.
No one? → No one... Yet.
Yet? Seems this no one desires to be someone.」

「We cannot rule unless we rule our subjects' minds.」

「God gives us rules, not choices. → Is it such a sin to want to be who I am?」

「Hold a mirror up to nature.」

「You owe me your life, master Shakespeare.」



【Episode 2】
「Cowards die many times before their deaths, the valiant never taste of death but once.」

「Greatness comes at a cost.」

「Onstage, I can be a king. Surely you've seen me act?
↓
Men pretending to be something they're not. I get that for free.」

「What I am and what I wish to be are not one and the same.」

「It is my belief that true genius cannot be bound. It must exist in the swirling chaos of anarchy.」



【Episode 3】
「Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel; <Hamlet>」



【Episode 4】
「Meet me in hell? → And I'll take you to heaven.」

「To find greatness, you must travel alone.」

「Plays that will serve as explorations of what is human. The mind, the soul. Plays that question how we love and why we fight. Plays that show us how much and how little we know.」



【Episode 5】
「Love does not alter when it alteration finds, but bears it out, even to the edge of doom. It is an ever-fixed mark.」



【Episode 6】
「Something wicked this way comes... <Macbeth>」

「The world needs your brilliance, and you need to shine or you'll gutter like a flame without air.
↓
How can I shine when I have nothing inside me but darkness?」

「I sold my soul for you love, and I would not change it for an eternity of redemption.」

「Expectation is the root of all heartache.」

「You will always be my husband and father to our children. But this is your world, not mine. I leave you free to be what it is you wish to be.」



【Episode 7】
「If your love cost me my soul, then here's to damnation darling. I shall see thee in hell.」

「Is hell real?
↓
Very.
↓
Then show me the devil. If I'm already damned, I may as well get something out of the bargain. I want to sell my soul.」

「Your play pokes fun at love. Perhaps the ending eludes you because love eludes you. But your options are to wallow or keep trying.」

「Where? Where is he?! I see nothing! Do you think I'm a fool? You sold me lies! You gave me hope! But there... is nothing.
↓
Shakepeare saw.
↓
Tricks! Drugs! Weak minds and lies!
↓
Faith! He saw because he believes. But you have nothing because you believe in nothing. You are nothing.」

「You English are all faggots!」hahahaha...



【Episode 8】
「Some fight with a sword. You fight with a pen. We must all be the hero we were born to be.」

「Where is the place that men call hell?(Under the heaven.) Aye. But whereabout?(Within the depths...) Within the water!(Within the bowels of these elements, where we are tortured...) And remain...(And remain forever.) Forever?(Hell hath no limits, kit, nor is it circumscribed in one self place. Where we are is hell, and where hell is, then we must ever be.) Then I am damned.」

「Why do you push away everyone who loves you?
↓
No one loves the damned, Tommy.
↓
God knows I tried, but I lost thee.
↓
You cannot lose what you never had.」

「Go to hell. → I tried. Apparently, it is empty, and all the devils are here.」



【Episode 9】
「And thus I clothe my naked villainy, and seem a saint when most I play the devil. <Richard III>」



【Episode 10】
「Better to die on our feet than live on our knees.」

「I will never hurt you, Kit. → Of course you will, Tommy. That's what love is.」

「Master Shakespeare, I am unaccustomed to having friends.
↓
I beg of you, come to our play.
↓
Your wish is my command.」

「The devil on stage. Well done, master Shakespeare.
↓
Thank you... for it all. Did you find something to believe in?
↓
Belief is just a state of mind.
↓
That's good.
↓
I know.」
