I just watched Julius Caesar, the movie version with Brando, and I noticed this quote and really enjoyed it:
O, that a man might know
The end of this day's business ere it come!
But it sufficeth that the day will end,
And then the end is known.
Exams, dates, sporting events...I feel like I have tried to express this feeling tons of times but I've never summed it up so eloquently. Shakespeare, you son of a gun.
Of course, the speaker was talking about going to war, and he dies before the end of the day...so I guess that's about as bad as "the end of [the] day's business" could be...and he didn't really get to experience the end of the day...so maybe this is a bad quote to pull out when you're unsure of how something will go down...
