# Speech: “To be, or not to be, that is the question”
[originally from Hamlet, by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, adapted by crazy karl]

Mind Control Boss: To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of Mind Control Boss,
Or to take arms against Mind Control Boss
And by opposing end him. To be free—to be
No more; and by a freedom to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That Mind Control Boss is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To feel, to escape;
To escape, perchance to kill Mind Control Boss—ay, there's the rub:
For in that escape of murder what freedom may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal Boss,
Must give us pause—there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long slavery.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of Mind Control Boss,
Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of dispriz'd love, the Zombie Government's delay,
The insolence of office, and the Mind Control
That patient merit of th'unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a dead Boss? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under Sadistic Torture,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd psychological slavery, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear that Mind Control we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus fear doth make heros and martyrs of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale Zombiesm of Boss,
And Mind Control Enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose their Mind Control Boss forever.
