Quotations

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

  - Excerpt from the notebooks of Lazarus Long,
from Robert Heinlein's 'Time Enough for Love'

 In Brief
"Stewart has adapted the play with two major kinds of changes: one, the speeches are cut; two, there are words and phrases changed in an effort to simplify the language. . . . Grades five and six." (Bull Cent Child Books)

 
 
 Annotation
Having presented the Bard's works in accurate and accessible texts for over 35 years, The Folger Shakespeare Library now offers new editions, based on the best early printed version of each play, which reflect the latest scholarship, and include sections on reading Shakespearean language, plus annotated reading lists and modern assessments by outstanding scholars. Illustrated with materials from the Library's extensive collections. Original.

I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was: man is but an ass, if he go about to expound this dream. Methought I was,--and methought I had,--but man is but a patched fool, if he offer to say what methought I had. The eye of man hath not heard, the ear of man hath not seen, man's hand is not able to taste, his tongue to conceive, nor his heart to report, what my dream was. I will get Peter Quince to write a ballad of this dream: it shall be called Bottom's Dream, because it hath no bottom.

Bookish Quotes

"Knowing I lov'd my books, he furnish'd me
From mine own library with volumes
that I prize above my dukedom."



"And this our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything."



"Our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything."



"Some men never seem to grow old. Always active in thought, always ready to adopt new ideas, they are never chargeable with foggyism. Satisfied, yet ever dissatisfied, settled, yet ever unsettled, they always enjoy the best of what is, are the first to find the best of what will be."



"Speak to me as to thy thinkings,
As thou dost ruminate, and give thy worst of thoughts
The worst of words."



"My words fly up, my thoughts remain below:
Words without thoughts never to heaven go."



"I understand a fury in your words,
But not the words."



"It is a kind of good deed to say well; and yet words are not deeds."



"To be a well-flavored man is the gift of fortune, but to write or read comes by nature."
