Hi. Most of you probably won't have a clue what I'm asking here. But, what the hell. I'm trying to remember this quote my friend used to use as his away message. It contained three of the same words like forget forget forget or regret regret regret. Or it could have been when you read the quote three of the same words would them become apparent. I can't remember. As if any of you could read my mind. Thanks to whomever knows what I'm talking about.

Obscure, obscure, obscure?

Roger--

Ahem.

Quote:
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."


W. Shakespeare. MacBeth

So Faulkner stole it. It was in his short story called "Tomorrow", of all things.

Looks like he flitched "sound and fury", too.

I'm so freakin' relieved. I remembered it. Real Eyes. Realize. Real Lies. Pretty cool huh? These are lyrics from a band called Machine Head.
