| • | The phrase "to be, or not to be" originates from a famous Shakespearean soliloquy by the main protagonist Prince Hamlet from The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark in the first scene of Act Three. The soliloquy in full form is as follows:
There have been several films entitled To Be or Not to Be. Other films taking their titles from this speech include Outrageous Fortune, What Dreams May Come and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country which has a number of references to the works of Shakespeare. As Hamlet has been translated into "original" Klingon, the Klingon translation of the term is taH pagh taHbe'.
The English composer Ivor Novello wrote a musical called Perchance to Dream.
The first three lines are an anagram of "In one of the Bard's best-thought-of tragedies, our insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life turns rotten". Hamlet reveals that his self-doubt and inability to avenge his fatherࢀ&#-2509; death have led him to the brink of suicide.
One of the clearest summaries of this soliloquy was provided by Schopenhauer :
