Mystery Cover

Famous quotes containing the words mystery and/or cover:

    So we’ll live,
    And pray, and sing, and tell old tales, and laugh
    At gilded butterflies, and hear poor rogues
    Talk of court news; and we’ll talk with them too—
    Who loses and who wins; who’s in, who’s out—
    And take upon ‘s the mystery of things,
    As if we were God’s spies.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Every individual ought to know at least one poet from cover to cover: if not as a guide through the world, then as a yardstick for the language.
    Joseph Brodsky (b. 1940)
