Answer:

Shakespeare uses a soliloquy to highlight the internal conflict that faced Hamlet in act III. The speech brought to the fore Hamlet's hesitation in deciding whether to end his life in the hope of attaining eternal rest. The line “No more; and by a sleep to say we end the heartache and the thousand natural shocks” shows that he considers death a possible way out of all his worries.

The soliloquy appears in Act III, scene i. It has historically been regarded as the most famous of all quotes in Shakespearean literature, perhaps in all literature.

That being said, much of the soliloquy represents paradox. Hamlet is questioning life and death, being and not being. For Hamlet, it seems that each exists upon its own premise and crosses over at the same time. When living, one is moving closer to death.

How did the wars going on during the time To Kill a Mockingbird was written affect the story?
Elodia [21]
 Scout narrates in the first person, telling what she saw and heard at the time and augmenting this narration with thoughts and assessments<span> of her experiences in retrospect. Although she is by no means an omniscient narrator, she has matured considerably over the intervening years and often implicitly and humorously comments on the naïveté she displayed in her thoughts and actions as a young girl. Scout mostly tells of her own thoughts but also devotes considerable time to recounting and analyzing Jem’s thoughts and actions.</span>
