The "Emptiness" of the stage

"And my poor fool is hanged! NO,no, no life?
Why should a dog, a horse, a rat have life,
And though no breath at all?"
King Lear (Lines 311-313) Bevington Ed.

The above quote emphasizes that the world does not have a sense of morality or judgement that it acts upon humanity. This statement in turn breaks down other fallacies of the world. If there is no universal morality, there need not be any notion that hidden hands are pulling strings, and any belief or faith in a diety is un founded because the world is empty. Any significance we live in life is what we give it.
The class became depressed with the aforementioned, but i think it is the most positive message Shakespeare could have given us. If the world is empty, then it is up to our individual selves (BIG emphasis on "individual")to make life what ever we want- of course with respect to humanity as a whole.
