Irony is only hypocrisy with style.....
Edited on Wed Jul-27-11 01:15 AM by WCGreen
The bard doth speak...

Not really the bard but an English sounding woman talking about Richard III in the movie Looking for Richard.

This play is so much like what is going on today, lies and deceptions and false villains to move the peoples mind toward the scoundrel.

The truth beneath all this is absolutely the opposite. The truth is that those in power have total contempt for everything they promise, for everything they pledge and that is really what Shakespeare's great play is about.... Ms. Redgrave.

I wonder if 300 years from now a great American Playwright will devise a play about the deceit and villainy happening now.

1. I wonder if anyone will write about our time 300 years from now as well...
Too bad we won't be here to see it...

I bet they will.

A little perspective might be a very good thing.
