The undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler return

Summary

This quote is from William Shakespeare's play "Hamlet" and is spoken by the character Hamlet. It refers to death and the mystery of what lies beyond it. Hamlet reflects upon the afterlife as an unknown realm that no living person can fully comprehend or explore. The "undiscovered country" is a metaphor for the realm of the dead, and the phrase "no traveler returns" signifies that no one who dies can come back to share their experiences or knowledge of what lies beyond life.
