One might call the first the Asiatic, the second the European principle.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
“One half of my life has put the other half in the grave.”
—Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

Alter, to see the shadow pass away,
Whose grasp had left the giant world so weak
That every pigmy kicked it as it lay;”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
