Drama Anthology

Famous quotes containing the words drama and/or anthology:

“Our true history is scarcely ever deciphered by others. The chief part of the drama is a monologue, or rather an intimate debate between God, our conscience, and ourselves. Tears, griefs, depressions, disappointments, irritations, good and evil thoughts, decisions, uncertainties, deliberations—all these belong to our secret, and are almost all incommunicable and intransmissible, even when we try to speak of them, and even when we write them down.”
—Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)

“I please
To plant some more dew-wet anemones
That they may weep.”
—Unknown. The Thousand and One Nights.
