00:01We're getting 14 hours a day and all the donuts we can eat on this project.
00:07Shakespeare, what the f*** do you know about Shakespeare?
00:14Arise, fair son.
00:18And kill the envious moon!
00:20Like eager droppings into milk it doth posset and curve.
00:24Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
00:31Intelligence is hooked with language.
00:33And when we speak with no feeling, we get nothing out of our society.
00:37We should speak like Shakespeare.
00:39We should introduce Shakespeare into the academic.
00:43You know why?
00:44Because then the kids would have feelings.
00:48We have no feelings.
00:49This is why it was easy for us to get a gun and shoot each other.
00:51We don't feel for each other.
00:53But if we were taught to feel, we wouldn't be so violent.
00:56And you think that Shakespeare helps us?
00:58He did more than help us.
01:00He instructed us.
01:06You gonna see the play tonight?
01:12How much it cost?
01:13It's for free.
01:14Oh, okay. I'm going then.
01:15Okay.
01:18Will it be your first Shakespeare play you see?
01:19Yeah.
01:20It'll be interesting. Give it a try.
01:23I saw Hamlet here recently.
01:24You saw Hamlet?
01:25Yeah.
01:26How did you feel about it?
01:27What did you see? It's live?
01:28It sucked.
01:29I saw it live down the street.
01:30It sucked?
01:31Yeah.
01:32Is there anything you can think of as Shakespeare that makes you think that it's not close to you or connected to you in any way?
01:39Yeah, it's boring.
01:40The bank in England, that West Bank, uses Shakespeare as...
01:45Let's cover up the bank account number.
01:47See, it's a hologram. They use it as ID to prove that it's a real card.
01:51What do you think of Shakespeare?
01:52He's a great expert.
01:54And who's moving in on Shakespeare now? The Japanese.
01:57Because they're kicking the Americans' ass.
01:59And they're all interested in Shakespeare all of a sudden.
02:02You know Shakespeare?
02:04We do Shakespeare?
02:06We're peddling him on the streets.
