- A place or situation of noisy uproar and confusion.
- often Bedlam Archaic. An insane asylum.
On signifying:
Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
and then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
William Shakespeare, Macbeth
This quote (without the first line) is also the motto of The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner which I read when I was a teenager. Incidentally, Macbeth is one of Shakespeare's plays I've read more than once.
This is just a post to correct the name of the album:) If that doesn't make you listen to James Blunt, nothing will. And to the other runner up in my list, Paradise Lost with their 2005 album, which right now I place on top of the list. I'll say it in two words: In-credible.
