HAMLET Voici l’heure sinistre de la nuit, L’heure des tombes qui s’ouvrent, celle où l’enfer Souffle au-dehors sa peste sur le monde. Maintenant je pourrais boire le sang chaud Et faire ce travail funeste que le jour Frissonnerait de voir… Mais, paix ! D’abord ma mère. Oh, n’oublie pas, mon cœur, qui elle est. Que jamais Une âme de Néron ne hante ta vigueur ! Sois féroce mais non dénaturé. Mes mots seuls la poignarderont ; c’est en cela Que mon âme et ma voix seront hypocrites ; Mon âme ! aussi cinglantes soient mes paroles, Ne consens pas à les marquer du sceau des actes ! (Acte III, scène II).

Beaucoup de bruit pour rien (Much Ado About Nothing) est une comédie de William Shakespeare publiée en 1600, dont la première a probablement été représentée à l'hiver 1598-15991. Elle reste à ce jour l'une des comédies de Shakespeare les plus populaires. 
Beaucoup de bruit pour rien se déroule à Messine, une ville côtière de Sicile. Bien que la Sicile ait été dominée par l'Espagne à l'époque de la pièce, les personnages reflètent un héritage nettement italien. Don Pedro, Prince d'Aragon, revient de guerre victorieux avec sa compagnie sur les terres de son ami Léonato, gouverneur de Messine. Béatrice, la nièce de Léonato, retrouve Bénédict, un chevalier du Prince. Ce sont de vieilles connaissances qui s'échangent des moqueries brillantes. Claudio, jeune et naïf ami de Bénédict, tombe amoureux de la jeune Héro, fille de Léonato. Leur mariage s'organise presque immédiatement, et par manière de plaisanterie, la compagnie de Don Pedro complote pour faire tomber Béatrice et Bénédict amoureux. Source Wikipédia.
