About This Quote
William Shakespeare said in Hamlet, Act V, Scene v, "He wasn't supposed to die, ' he cried out, somewhat desperately, petulantly." He was referring to the fact that when he was alive he wasn't supposed to die. He was supposed to live forever. But he died unjustly and unfairly so Hamlet has the right to be angry. Not only is Hamlet angry but so are his mother and his father because "Neither are you. Neither am I."
