He spends all his time churning out music in final copy, which, although beautiful, doesn't earn money as would teaching music. Mozart is really the one who should be jealous, as he has little in the way of money or assets, or even respect.

It isn't the fact that someone has more talent than him, the problem is, as he sees it, that he is ...

... fewer firms . In this environment the usual democratic expectation for the media -- diversity of ownership and ideas -- has disappeared as the goal of official policy and, worse, as a daily experience of a generation of American readers and viewers. Narrowing the diversity of news coverage even further is the ever-looming presence of the advertiser or corporate supporter. Advertisers have pressured more than 90 percent of U.S. newspapers to change or kill stories, reported a recent study by Marquette University's Department of Journalism .

He begins his speech quite normally, replying with a simple answer to Horatio's inquiry but then his thoughts begin to wander and he starts to analyze and philosophize about topics unrelated to Horatio's question. Another trait of Hamlet is t ...
