Shakespearean Musings

Is this a dagger which I see before me, the handle towards my hand?

  2. Very simple. Is it or isn't it a dagger. Perhaps it is merely a jewel-handled letter opener, or a cocktail stick, or a hallucination, a symbol of a lust for power. Or it might be useful for slicing chorizo in the country. Who can say.

    (It's from Macbeth. He is considering killing the king and his conscience reproaches him.)
