.... that both the worlds I give to negligence, let come what comes; only I'll be reveng'd most thoroughly for my father." (4,5,131) This quote provides insight into Laertes' mind displaying his desire for revenge at any cost. In contrast to Laertes' speculation of his father's killer, Hamlet presumes the person spying on his conversation with his mother is Claudius.

.... because of her frail condition she has been brushed off by adults and has never outgrown her childish ways.

.... been so uncompromisingly strict that it had made them exteriorly austere, not to say stern. Their influence was effective in the house; so effective that the mother and the daughter conformed to its moral and religious requirements cheerfully, contentedly, happily, unquestionably. To do this was become second nature to them. And so in this peaceful heaven there were no clashings, no irritations, no fault-finding, no heart-burnings. In it a lie had no place. In it a lie was unthinkable. In it speech was restricted to absolute truth, iron-bound truth, implacable and uncompromising truth, let the resulting consequences be what they might. At last, one .....
