Ah, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, than take up arms against a see of nerds, and by opposing, end them...

I choose to be as long as possible.
If there are two states, to be and not, and we are allowed to explore both freely, then both states should be explored as much as possible.
But if death is an inevitable fate you will live forever upon arrival then I would wish to live out this world to its fullest before I have to wake from this fading dream.

Hamlet was bipolar . Life is pain , but Death holds little satisfaction , except perchance to dream .

Well, it is 'the' question isn't it?
I have puzzled over this one for ages. Can't decide.
Probably 'to be' maybe the choice of most I think.

To be is it. It's a sign of bravery,and adventure some. Not to be is a sign of cowardice,
indecisiveness, and a real cop-out. or meekness.
