Which theme is reinforced in the excerpt below from Shakespeare's Hamlet?

Rightly to be great
Is not to stir without great argument,
But greatly to find quarrel in a straw
When honor's at the stake. How stand I, then,
That have a father kill'd, a mother stain'd,
Excitements of my reason and my blood,
And let all sleep[?]

appearance versus reality

complexity of action

impossibility of certainty

mystery of death

Which theme is reinforced in the excerpt below from Shakespeare's Hamlet?

Rightly to be great
Is not to stir without great argument,
But greatly to find quarrel in a straw
When honor's at the stake. How stand I, then,
That have a father kill'd, a mother stain'd,
Excitements of my reason and my blood,
And let all sleep[?]

    appearance versus reality

    complexity of action

    impossibility of certainty

    mystery of death
