"Though this is madness, yet there be method tot it." ~Claudious talking about Hamlet

In this story, there is a part where Hamlet gets really mad at Ophelia and pretty much freaks out on her. This was because he saw that Claudious and Polonious were watching. He had over heard from before that Polonious did not want him and Ophelia to fall in love, and Ophelia was told to go break up with him and end the relationship. Even though Hamlet had reasons why he acted like he did, i don't think there was any reason why he had to be that mean to her. And, even if he was supposedly acting like he hated her and it was over, he couldn've given Ophelia some sort of hint that he knew his uncle and her father were watching to make sure she did her job. There are many times today when you do crazy things, but they to have a plan behind them. For example, some people like to get attention from either the media or their family by getting drunk, threatening to commit suicide, or by commiting a crime. Even though the plans aren't always the best, there is still method to the madness.
