    “Hawkins: The will is not exactly in proper legal phraseology. Richard: No: my father died without the consolations of the law.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “No one thinks anything silly is suitable when they are an adolescent. Such an enormous share of their own behavior is silly that they lose all proper perspective on silliness, like a baker who is nauseated by the sight of his own eclairs. This provides another good argument for the emerging theory that the best use of cryogenics is to freeze all human beings when they are between the ages of twelve and nineteen.”
    —Anna Quindlen (20th century)

    “When one walks, one is brought into touch first of all with the essential relations between one’s physical powers and the character of the country; one is compelled to see it as its natives do. Then every man one meets is an individual. One is no longer regarded by the whole population as an unapproachable and uninteresting animal to be cheated and robbed.”
    —Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
