Macbeth
Come what come may, Time and the hour runs through the roughest day.
Iām currently reading a lot of Shakespeareās plays, and I use sticky notes for a lot of things. One of them is āmemorable quotesā, and I do have to say that the sticky notes for this one appear particularly often, which doesnāt really surprise me because Shakespeare really knew how to use his words šāāļø. When I stumbled upon this sentence, I marked it and continued reading, but I couldnāt stop thinking about it. I interpret it as meaning that, no matter how hard or negative a day is, the hours will pass and soon the day will be over. In the context of Act I, Scene III, Macbeth has just heard the witchesā prophecies, and I think the quote also reflects his acceptance that whatever is going to happen will happen, while time continues to move forward. Maybe I needed a reminder at that moment, but this quote really did something to me. Even the worst days will be over at some point, and on the following day, there will be new opportunities.
Now I wanted to ask if you have a favourite quote from Shakespeare that you couldnāt stop thinking about because you deeply related to it or because it reminded you of something.
