"Lord, what fool these mortals be."

This is like straight from Shakespeare. Im pretty sure this is from a midsummer nights dream or something like that. So...... Im pretty sure, if my memory serves right all the way from grade 9, i mean ninth grade, that puck is the one to say this. The reason why i said ninth grade is because me and my friend are having an argument of which one is proper, grade nine or ninth grade. I am standing beside the grade nine motion. My argument is that it is allowable to way, "I am currently attending grade nine." Another argument of mine is if someone asks what GRADE im attending, i will respond with, " grade nine", and not ninth grade, he argues that ninth grade is more proper. The problem i am facing is that i am fine with using both grade nin and ninth grade, although i find grade nine easier, but he completely refuses that grade nine is appropriate and that it must be sayed as ninth grade. If anyone is actually reading this blog, then i would greatly appreciate the help with some feedback. Wow, i changed my blog into a ask your audience type of thing haha. Oh well. Ok, back to the topic. I remember that i had this play when i was in grade 9 with Mr. Hughes. This was, to my recelection, near the end of the play, or infact at the very end. Puck had sayed this and ment easy it was to play upon humans. I didnt really like shakespeare. Since i go to polish school once a week, i have read tons of plays by other people that are better than shakespeares. One of the most famous polish pieces of writting is an "Epopeja" under the name of "Pan Tadeusz". You might not understand this, but pretty much, it is a long story in which each line contains 13 syllables. Every single line, in about 500 pages worth of writing. Now in my opinion, that is much more impressive than anything shakespeare has done. I wrote a peom in the style of "Pan Tadeusz" in grade 10, which contained 7 syllables per line for one whole page. Oh i forgot to mention that there was a rhyme scheme to "Pan Tadeusz", although i forgot exactly what type it was. Anyways, the poem took me a long time to finish. It was really hard work to do
