HAMLET: For of such things are sweet dreams made, who am I but a worm to disagree thence? I might be bounded in a nutshell and count myself a king of infinite space, but that everybody is looking for something.

Some of them would use you; some, that you would of them find purpose; some of them would fain abuse you and some wouldst well be abused.

@Leucrotta I feel like there's something I'm not getting here.

@Felthry Just reworking the lyrics to Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams are Made of This."

@Leucrotta ah, being unfamiliar with both Hamlet and that song, it makes sense that we would miss the reference completely

@Felthry there really *is* a part where he says "I could be bounded in a nutshell and count myself a king of infinite space, but that I have bad dreams."
