Famous quotes containing the words human and/or comedy:
“All things by human laws created change:
Lands to each other known, in time grow strange:
Nations in course of many years put on
A various face; but heaven wears always one.”
—Marcus Manilius (10 B.C.A.D. 30)
“It is comedy which typifies, where it is tragedy which individualizes; where tragedy observes the nice distinctions between man and man, comedy stresses those broad resemblances which make it difficult to tell people apart.”
—Harry Levin (b. 1912)
