I apologize for any confusion in my previous response. The quote "There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so" is not directly related to Hamlet's famous "to be or not to be" soliloquy. The former quote appears in Act II, Scene 2, while the latter quote is found in Act III, Scene 1. The context of the two quotes is separate, and the proximity of the quotes in the play does not suggest a direct connection between them.

However, both quotes do touch upon the themes of existential questioning and the subjective nature of reality. The famous "to be or not to be" soliloquy is primarily concerned with Hamlet's contemplation of life, death, and the meaning of existence, while the "nothing either good or bad" quote highlights the idea that our perceptions and thoughts shape our reality.

It is possible to view these quotes as reflections of Shakespeare's broader exploration of the human condition and the complexities of our inner lives, rather than as direct connections to the philosophy of Parmenides. Nonetheless, the themes of existence, perception, and the nature of reality have been central to philosophical thought since the time of the pre-Socratics and continue to be explored and debated today.
