Which paragraph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Um, this one: Many readers believe Hamlet steers away from suicide because of fear for the afterlife, and his depression. In his famous soliloquy, although he has found suicide to be the method of ending one’s hardships, he is well aware of the full consequences self-murder can do to an individual: “Ay, there’s the rub, / For in that sleep of death what dreams may come / When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, / Must give us pause.” (III. i. 56) Hamlet speaks the truth about death that no one will ever know what will happen after we die, and that many people fear the uncertainty of death. However, it is neither fear nor his depression that makes him decline the path of suicide. Depressed people are defined as introverts, quiet, mournful, or sleepy. In contrast, Hamlet is loud, active and boisterous. He also does not strike as someone who is trembling in fear. Hamlet is merely pondering his options in this world, and concludes that it’s better to live. He is aware of how final death is, and he knows it does not look good to him: “Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, / And thus the native hue of resolution / Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,” (III. I. 85-86) He is going to live even if it is just long enough to kill his uncle and spite his mother. He has things he wants to do, which is caused by anger and not by fear of death.

Many readers believe that Hamlet steers away from suicide because of his depression and his fear of the afterlife. In his famous soliloquy, he is well aware of the consequences self-murder poses to an individual, ‘Ay, there’s the rub,/ For in that sleep of death what dreams may come/ When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,/ Must give us pause” (III. i. 56), although he himself uses suicide to end one’s hardships. Hamlet speaks the truth about death, saying, “No one will ever know what will happen after we die, and that many people fear the uncertainty of death. However, neither his depression nor fear make him decline suicide’s path. People who are depressed are defined as ‘introverts, quiet, mournful, or sleepy’. In contrast, Hamlet can be described as ‘loud, active, and boisterous’, neither does he strike as a person consumed by fear. He merely ponders his options in this world, and concludes that it is better to live. Aware of how final death can be, he knows it does not look good: “Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,/ And thus the native hue of resolution/ is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought.” (III. I. 85-86). He pursues life, even if just long enough to kill his uncle and spite his mother. There are things he would like to do, caused not by fear of death, but by anger. This wold be my best attepmt. I changed a few sentence beginings, rearranged, and put a few new words in. I did not bother iwth the quotes for obvious reasons. Hope this helps you a little
