A Remarkable Coincidence
April 4th, 2009 | Published in Life, Thoughts
Remarkable coincidences are rare. But they do happen.
I ran into this one the other day. Puzzle expert Cory Calhoun noticed that this text from Shakespeare:
To be or not to be: that is the question, whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
can be rearranged (anagramed) into:
In one of the Bard’s best-thought-of tragedies, our insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life turns rotten.
Sometimes remarkable coincidences are, in fact, just remarkable coincidences.
