What!
look upon my brother:--both your pardons,
That
e’er I put between your holy looks
My
ill suspicions.
-Leontes
The Winter’s Tale Act V, scene iii, line 148
Just for perspective, the last line of this play is 155 in this
very scene; in other words, there’s 7 more lines in this play after today’s
Totally Random line. So, what does that mean to us? I’m not sure. I don’t know
the whole play and who’s who here. But I do know that the speaker, Leontes,
started the whole mess of this play by falsely accusing his wife of having an affair with
his friend. And then he tried to have his friend murdered, and he had his wife
put in jail. In the beginning of this play he was a Gaddafi-level nut-job. And
now he’s all ‘oh let’s just put this behind us.’ And that makes it a happy
ending! What the…!?!?
Okay, I couldn't find a relevant picture, so I put in a picture of a really cool tree. What can I say; I'm a tree nut.
