Local Copies

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or copies:

    While it may not heighten our sympathy, wit widens our horizons by its flashes, revealing remote hidden affiliations and drawing laughter from far afield; humor, in contrast, strikes up fellow feeling, and though it does not leap so much across time and space, enriches our insight into the universal in familiar things, lending it a local habitation and a name.
    —Marie Collins Swabey. Comic Laughter, ch. 5, Yale University Press (1961)

    Love is one and the same in the original; but there are a thousand different copies of it.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
