“Why, look you now, how unworthy a thing you make of
me! You would play upon me; you would seem to know
my stops; you would pluck out the heart of my

easier to be played on than a pipe? Call me what
instrument you will, though you can fret me, yet you
cannot play upon me.”

- Hamlet (Hamlet, Act III scene ii)
