Give me your pardon, sir. I’ve done you wrong.
But pardon ’t, as you are a gentleman.
This presence knows,
And you must needs have heard, how I am punished
With sore distraction. What I have done,
That might your nature, honor, and exception
Roughly awake, I here proclaim was madness.
Was ’t Hamlet wronged Laertes? Never Hamlet.
If Hamlet from himself be ta'en away,
And when he’s not himself does wrong Laertes,
Then Hamlet does it not. Hamlet denies it.
Who does it, then? His madness. If’t be so,
Hamlet is of the faction that is wronged.
His madness is poor Hamlet’s enemy.
V. II. 220
Does it not, think thee, stand me now upon -
He that hath killed my king and whored my mother,
Popped in between th' election and my hopes,
Thrown out his angle for my proper life
(And with such cozenage!) - is't not perfect conscience
To quit him with this arm? And is't not to be damned
to let this canker of our nature come
In further evil?
V. I. 63-70
No, faith, not a jot; but to follow him thither,
with modesty enough and likelihood to lead it, as
thus: Alexander died, Alexander was buried, Alexander
returneth into dust; the dust is earth; of earth
we make loam; and why of that loam, whereto he
was converted might they not stop a beer barrel?
Imperious Caesar, dead and turned to clay,
Might stop a hole to keep the wind away.
O, that that earth which kept the world in awe
Should patch a wall t' expel the winter's flaw!
V. I. 201-210
Alas, poor Yorick! I
knew him, Horatio, a fellow of infinite jest, of most
excellent fancy. He hath borne me on his back a
thousand times, and now, how abhorred in
my imagination it is! My gorge rises at it. Here hung those
lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. —Where be
your gibes now? Your gambols? Your songs? Your
flashes of merriment that were wont to set the table
on a roar? Not one now to mock your own grinning?
Quite chap-fallen? Now get you to my lady’s chamber,
and tell her, let her paint an inch thick, to this favor
she must come. Make her laugh at that.
V. I. 178-189

It reminds the readers the importance of Hamlet's revenge on Claudius.
I loved Ophelia; forty thousand brothers
Could not, with all their quantity of love,
Make up my sum. What wilt thou do for her?
Not a whit; we defy augury: there's a special
providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, 'tis
not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it
be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all: since
no man has aught of what he leaves, what is't to leave
betimes? Let be.
Do you think Gertrude knew the drink was poisoned?
Why do you think Hamlet jumped into Ophelia's grave and wrestled with Laertes?
Did Hamlet actually love Ophelia?
Is the ghost a devil or the King?
Is Hamlet actually mad?
HORATIO: So Guildenstern and Rosencrantz go to't.
HAMLET: Why, man, they did make love to this employment;
They are not near my conscience; their defeat
Does by their own insinuation grow:
'Tis dangerous when the baser nature comes
Between the pass and fell incensed points
Of mighty opposites.
