    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    “Well, my paper has asked me to do a series: Lives of the Great Musicians, reading time 2 minutes.”
    —Dodie Smith, and Lewis Allen. Roderick Fitzgerald (Ray Milland)

    “Shall quips and sentences and these paper bullets of the brain awe a man from the career of his humor? No, the world must be peopled.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
