Favorite Quote

• My favorite quote in Hamlet  so far is"A little more than kin, and less than kind." . In this quote Hamlet refers to Claudius as "more than kin" because he is his uncle as well as his father, and "less than kind" because he feels no real connection to him. Despite Claudius's relation to Hamlet, Hamlet does not consider Claudius to be his kind of person. I like this because it shows that Hamlet gives no one respect based solely on their status in Denmark. This shows how Hamlet follows his gut instinct about people, which is an admirable quality.
