Nietzsche when speaking of Hamlet, declared of him "Hamlet looked truly into the essence of things, and having gained knowledge, it disgusted his to act, for his action could not change anything in the eternal essence of things; he felt it to be ridiculous or humiliating that he should be asked to set right a world that is out of joint. Knowledge kills action; action requires the veils of illusion – that is the Hamlet Doctrine.
