I know that you are a mere flea! I know that you need only be squashed to be done away with! I know that I have fought this same battle a thousand thousand times before...but, perhaps this time I can crush you like the insect you are!

About This Quote

"I know that you are a mere flea! I know that you need only be squashed to be done away with! I know that I have fought this same battle a thousand thousand times before...but, perhaps this time I can crush you like the insect you are!" This quote is from the play "Hamlet" by William Shakespeare, in which Hamlet expresses his contempt for his father's character. In this quote, Hamlet says he is going to kill his father because the man has been unfair. Hamlet believes he can win by being unfair and going down to defeat with all the dignity of a bug.
