that is the question. Said Hamlet in Act 3, Scene 1 and page 3.
This is one of the most remembered words in English, and Sir William Shakespeare is considered one of the best outstanding writers in the world as well.

Who knows…

To be


I AM a person.
You ARE a person too.
(S)he / it IS here with us.
We ARE all on the same small planet.
You ARE part of the solution, or part of the problem.
They ARE able to help or hinder us.
