Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or plays:

    There are souls that are incurable and lost to the rest of society. Deprive them of one means of folly, they will invent ten thousand others. They will create subtler, wilder methods, methods that are absolutely DESPERATE. Nature herself is fundamentally antisocial, it is only by a usurpation of powers that the organized body of society opposes the natural inclination of humanity.
    Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)

    He plays o’the viol-de-gamboys, and speaks three or four languages word for word without book, and hath all the good gifts of nature.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
