“There is Israel, for us at least. What no other generation had, we have. We have Israel in spite of all the dangers, the threats and the wars, we have Israel. We can go to Jerusalem. Generations and generations could not and we can.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
“There is nothing like the fun of having brothers,
if there is no rivalry.
There is nothing like the fun of summer rains,
if there is no mud.
There is nothing like the fun of gambling,
if there is no loss.”
—Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
“What a devil hast thou to do with the time of the day? Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the
tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored
taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous
to demand the time of the day.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
