“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.”
― Charles Dickens

“From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered-
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs’d they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.”
― William Shakespeare, Henry V

“There are books of which the backs and covers are by far the best parts.”
― Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist

“Music . . . can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable.”
― Leonard Bernstein
