Villain Villain
Hamlet's soliloquy at the end of act 2 scene 2 explodes of anger, hatred, and emotion. Hamlet calls Claudius a "Remorseless, treacherous, lecherous, kindless villain!" (II.ii.608-9). This quote highlights Hamlet's rage and emotion against Claudius. He committed treason drived by lust and greed, and betrayed his country all for his own benefit. He shook the well being of Denmark: an act only a villain would commit. Hamlet is correct by raging on Claudius. Hamlet has all the right to be mad. A person who I thought of who is always mad is Dr. Doofenschmirtz, the ultimate villain.

I really like how true and concise your quote is! It completely sums up all of Hamlet's emotions concerning Claudius, plus the allusion to Dr. Doofenschmirtz is AMAZING! Let's hope he's just as smart as him, though, so chaos doesn't ensue! Great job Amir!
