Never mind of what actual worth,
And wipe that out of the earth.
Let them die of unsatisfied greed....””

Lear. Let me wipe it first, it smells of mortality.
Gloucester. O ruined piece of nature! This great world
Shall so wear out to nought.”

“Remember thee?
Ay, thou poor ghost, whiles memory holds a seat
In this distracted globe. Remember thee?
Yea, from the table of my memory
I’ll wipe away all trivial fond records,
All saws of books, all forms, all pressures past
That youth and observation copied there,
And thy commandment all alone shall live
Within the book and volume of my brain,”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
