    “I’the commonwealth I would by contraries
    Execute all things; for no kind of traffic
    Would I admit; no name of magistrate;
    Letters should not be known; riches, poverty,
    And use of service, none; contract, succession,
    Bourn, bound of land, tilth, vineyard, none;
    No use of metal, corn, or wine, or oil;
    No occupation; all men idle, all,
    And women too, but innocent and pure.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “...I have come to make distinctions between what I call the academy and literature, the moral equivalents of church and God. The academy may lie, but literature tries to tell the truth.”
    —Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)

    “The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    “Only a great actor finds the difficulties of the actor’s art infinite.”
    —Ellen Terry (1847–1928)
