Is Hamlet respected by his peers in the play?
Horatio is a fellow student of Hamlet's who clearly loves him. Laertes is a Dane of about Hamlet's age, although of less exalted birth. Hamlet respects him and calls him "a most noble youth", while Laertes says of Hamlet's apology to him, "I am satisfied in nature" although it is difficult to believe anything he says at this stage. Fortinbras is probably as close to a peer as Hamlet has in the play, and he says "he was likely, had he been put on, to have proved most royal". While we do not know what Fortinbras's basis was for such a statement it surely confirms that Fortinbras respected Hamlet.
Who says thy mother poisoned in hamlet?
She does. She says: No, no, the drink, the drink,--O my dear Hamlet,--The drink, the drink! I am poison'd.
Who says bow stubborn knees in Hamlet?
Claudius.
What contrast does Hamlet note between fortinbras and himself?
hamlet says that he would never betray one of his friends.
What does hamlet tell his mother that causes her to say he has cut her heart in two?
What he says immediately before she utters this line is "Forgive me this my virtue for in the fatness of these pursy times virtue itself of vice must pardon beg." but surely Hamlet's smug belief in his own virtue or his cynical view of the world cannot have cleft her heart in twain. However, Hamlet has just completed an extended rant, interrupted by the appearance of the ghost, in which he is urging his mother to break off marital relations with her husband the king. Has he persuaded her that being a good wife to Claudius is a bad thing by comparing Claudius's picture to that of Hamlet's father? Surely not. What does Hamlet tell Gertrude that she didn't know before? "Almost as bad, good mother, as kill a king and marry with his brother." says Hamlet, and Gertrude immediately seizes upon the new information. "As kill a king?" she says. It takes a while for this to sink in and for the truth of the accusation to dawn on her, and all the while Hamlet is ranting away. She wants him to stop so she can think about this, and to evaluate her position: she has unwittingly married her husband's murderer. This is what has cleft her heart in twain
