Famous quotes containing the words black and/or page:
“A new disease? I know not, new or old,
But it may well be called poor mortals plague:
For, like a pestilence, it doth infect
The houses of the brain ...
Till not a thought, or motion, in the mind,
Be free from the black poison of suspect.”
—Ben Jonson (c. 15721637)
“Digressions, incontestably, are the sunshine;Mthey are the life, the soul of reading!take them out of this book, for instance,you might as well take the book along with them;Mone cold external winter would reign in every page of it; restore them to the writer;Mhe steps forth like a bridegroom,bids All-hail; brings in variety, and forbids the appetite to fail.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
