Quote One: "Frailty, thy name is woman." Hamlet said this in a soliloquy about his mother. He means that women are weak minded and depend upon a man to protect them. I do not think that this quote applies in the modern age. Women nowadays are much more intelligent thanks to being allowed to attend school, and are capable of being independent from men.They can take care of themselves when the need arises.
Quote Two: "Brevity is the soul of wit." Polonius says this to Claudius and Gertrude. It means that being well spoken and having knowledge of how to use words in conversation makes you intelligent. I think that this is very applicable to life today. It's important to be well learned and know how to speak well and with at least an air of intelligence about you.
