Madness in great ones must not unwatched go.
I'm trying to write an essay on Hamlet's real or feigned madness and am wondering is Shakespeare had any underlying meanings in this quote. I might be way off but could it mean that Hamlet was the sane one in the play while the others were mad? What is and is not mad is defined by the masses, is it not?
