"The Fault, Dear Brutus, Is Not in Our Stars, But in Ourselves, That We Are Underlings." Cassius Act-I, Scene-II

The document contains short excerpts from four of Shakespeare's plays - Julius Caesar, All's Well That Ends Well, Hamlet, and Macbeth. The excerpts discuss the limits of human understanding and philosophy, with Cassius stating that faults lie within ourselves rather than the stars, Lafeu arguing we should submit to unknown fears rather than seeming knowledge, and Hamlet saying there are more things than are dreamed in philosophy. It concludes with a well-known quote from Macbeth about the meaninglessness of life.

"The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,

But in ourselves, that we are underlings."


Cassius
Act-I, Scene-II
Julius Caesar
William Shakespeare

They say miracles are past; and we have our philosophical persons, to make modern and
familiar, things supernatural and causeless. Hence is it that we make trifles of terrors,
ensconcing ourselves into seeming knowledge, when we should submit ourselves to an
unknown fear.
Lafeu
Act-II, Scene-III
Alls Well that Ends Well
William Shakespeare

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,


Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
Hamlet
Act-I, Scene-V
The Tragedy of Hamlet
William Shakespeare
.....it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
William Shakespeare
