Now get you to my lady’s chamber and tell her, let her paint an inch thick, to this favour she must come.
– William Shakespeare
Hamlet, Act 5, Scene 1. Hamlet tells Yorick’s skull to tell his mother the Queen that no matter how much makeup she applies to herself, she too will end up like Yorick, dead and her flesh decayed. Hamlet is scorning Gertrude for marrying his uncle so soon after his King Hamlet’s death.
