    “Ancient history has an air of antiquity. It should be more modern. It is written as if the specator should be thinking of the backside of the picture on the wall, or as if the author expected that the dead would be his readers, and wished to detail to them their own experience.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food: the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. And a river went out of Eden to water the garden.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Genesis 2:9-10.

    “You can’t have operations without screams. Pain and the knife—they’re inseparable.”
    —Jean Scott Rogers. Robert Day. Mr. Blount (Frank Pettingell)

    “Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine.”
