“Your profanity, thinks Felix, has often been your whoreson hag-born progenitor of literacy.” “We all wrote it together. We’re writing, like, a musical… Why shouldn’t Caliban have a play to himself?” “Ain’t gonna any more lick your feet/ Or walk behind you on the street, / Ain’t gonna get on the back of the bus, / And you can give our land right back to us!” “Abhorred slave… I pitied thee, / Took pains to make thee speak…/But thy vile race… had that in’t which good natures/ Could not abide to be with. Therefore wast thou/ Deservedly confined into this rock” – Miranda “Their great guilt,/ Like poison given to work a great time after,/ Now ‘gins to bite the spirits” – Gonzalo, the betrayers are imprisoned by guilt “As you from crimes would pardoned be, / Let your indulgence set me free.” – Prospero, Epilogue “This is the extent of it, Felix muses. My island domain. My place of exile. My penance. / My theatre.” “‘To the elements be free’, he says to her./ And, finally, she is” – Felix letting go of Miranda “Our revels now are ended. These our actors,/ As I foretold you, were all spirits, and/ Are melted into air, into thin air” “But this rough magic/ I here abjure, and…/ I’ll break my staff/ Bury it certain fathoms in the earth, / And deeper than did ever plummet sound/ I’ll drown my book.” “What he couldn't have in life he might still catch sight of through his art: just a glimpse, from the corner of his eye” – Felix using art as catharsis “It’s the words that should concern you, he thinks at them. That’s the real danger. Words don’t show up on scanners.” –

Felix “…the island is a theatre. Prospero is a director. He’s putting on a play within which there’s another play. If his magic holds and his play is successful, he’ll get his heart’s desire.” – Felix “At this hour/ Lies at my mercy all mine enemies” VS “The rarer action is / In virtue than in vengeance” – Prospero “Your charm so strongly works ‘em/ That if you now beheld them, your affections/ Would become tender.../ Mine would, sir, were I human.” – Ariel “How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world/ That has such people in’t!” – Miranda “When you walk in here, you shed your daily self. You become a clean slate. Then you draw on a new face.” “…it’s Ariel who changes Prospero’s mind, from revenge to forgiveness, because despite the crap they did, he feels sorry for the bad guys” – 8Handz and Team Ariel “How lush and lusty the grass looks! How green!” V.S. “The ground indeed is tawny./ With an eye of green in 't./ He misses not much./ No, he doth but mistake the truth totally.” – Gonzalo, Antonio, Sebastien, differing views “It is real... More than real. Hyper-real. You’ll see.” – Felix describing the play, metatextuality “But everything is ephemeral, he reminds himself. All gorgeous palaces, all cloud-capped towers. Who should know that better than he?” – Felix talking about life “Lingering perdition – worse than any death… falls/ Upon your heads – is nothing but heart’s sorrow,/ And a clear life ensuing” – Ariel says sorrow/repentance = clear conscience “He needed to get his Tempest back… his Miranda must be released from her glass coffin; she must be given a life”
