Shakespeare Challange

we all knowMeyer wanted to call TWOK "The Undiscovered County" -- and that movie, like the quote, had death as a central theme. I believe he then applied it here, changing the meaning to suit his purposes, just because he wanted to show he knows Shakespeare.

But I also know that Shakespeare offered many other, better quotes, regarding the end of war, old enemies laying down arms, and enemies becoming friends. I will not offer any of my own right now, simply because I'm using my iPad, and if it allows me to cut and paste quotes, I don't know how yet. So Until I return on my laptop, who has a few choice quotes to offer as possibe alternative titles?

"After years of fighting with reality, I am pleased to say that I have finally won out over it."
