... Claudius in Ridley Scott's "Hamlet" written by Geoff Johns...

Claudius: .."... and stateshood is a country inn and I dwell like a tavern-host at the country inn of  Elsinore... and I like good rum, whisky or runny silky sweet and sour ale.. and it is time for a gaming.. a true gamesmanship at Elsinore.. and we should see our Kingdom like a kind of true party-state.. a merry-go-round Carnival Kingdom of Elsinore.. and something.. something wicked this way comes.. something .. something.. wormwood.. wormwood.. for we live in a Carnival wooden shack of Elsinore kingdom of Elenore.. and a rusty old antik goddess Inanna of Sumeria is the patron goddess of this kingdom.. and their be not till the time is right any usurpers in this kingdom.. heh... none but me that is.."..

.. a mysterious, dainty woman in the shadows.. Ophelia..

Ophelia: .. heh.. or me.. I am ready to make a Viking Mead drink of the castle we all inhabit so we can be a Viking Republic of silly girls making their merry way to be silly girl-Vikings.. and we are all looking for a small golden ring are we not.. to put poutily on my dainty finger.. a golden ring of many rainbow hues of souls of many greys, colours and casts.. a ring of shadows is devouring Elsinore... and as we fall under many, many shadows, ghosts and phantoms as the ring fire devours Elsinore heartily with a good Viking appetite born from an undiscovered country of a truly Christian Hell.. for I see much that is Christian and Viking about our poor, misunderstood Kingdom Castlevillainous of Elsinore.. and the truly gentle womb of hellfire in my soul shall find it's place on the Queendom throne of our friendly Irish Castle in the Sky...

Claudius: .. ahh.. yes .. lovely Ophelia.. the sky them their's the limit for ye... we will both of us touch the sky.. and the sky shall grace our land respeaking earthly thunder and the most deadly gravestone lightning... both your Kingdom and mine.. Ophelia.. Ophelia.. gentle Elsinore mistress Ophelia...
