    لهم نسكٌ وليسَ بهم رياءُ

    فأمّا هؤلاء فأهلُ مكرٍ
    وأما الأولونَ فأغبياءُ”

    William Shakespeare
    “These violent delights have violent ends
    And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
    Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey

    And in the taste confounds the appetite.
    Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
    Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
    William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

    Hence is the inner life of so many suffering women
    Sunless and silent and deep, like subterranean rivers
    Runnng through caverns of darkness...”
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The courtship of Miles Standish, and other poems

    Samuel Taylor Coleridge
    “There are four kinds of readers. The first is like the hourglass; and their reading being as the sand, it runs in and runs out, and leaves not a vestige behind. A second is like the sponge, which imbibes everything, and returns it in nearly the same state, only a little dirtier. A third is like a jelly bag, allowing all that is pure to pass away, and retaining only the refuse and dregs. And the fourth is like the slaves in the diamond mines of Golconda, who, casting aside all that is worthless, retain only pure gems.”
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge
