Bu there's a reason we recognize Hamlet as a masterpiece: it's that Shakespeare told us the truth (...). The truth is, we know so little about life, we don't really know what the good news is and what the bad news is.
And if I die - God forbid - I would like to go to heaven to ask somebody in charge up there, "Hey, what was the good news and what was the bad news?"
