    “It is more of a job to interpret the interpretations than to interpret the things, and there are more books about books than about any other subject: we do nothing but write glosses about each other.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “Proverbs, like the sacred books of each nation, are the sanctuary of the intuitions. That which the droning world, chained to appearances, will not allow the realist to say in his own words, it will suffer him to say in proverbs without contradiction.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Don’t you hear his cannons roar?
    We’ll be Orangemen no more
    Says the Shan Van Vocht.”
