    “In a drama of the highest order there is little food for censure or hatred; it teaches rather self-knowledge and self- respect.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.”
