“I had rather hear a brazen canstick turned,
Or a dry wheel grate on the axle-tree,
And that would set my teeth nothing on edge,
Nothing so much as mincing poetry.
Tis like the forced gait of a shuffling nag.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“The human species, according to the best theory I can form of it, is composed of two distinct races, the men who borrow and the men who lend.”
