Famous quotes containing the words lincoln, mystery and/or plays:

    I have never had a feeling politically that did not spring from the sentiments embodied in the Declaration of Independence.
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    There is a mystery that floats between
    The tourist and the town. Imagination
    Estranges it from her. She need not suffer
    Or die here. It is none of her affair,
    Its calm heroic vistas make no claim.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    Better to be despised and have a servant, than to be self-important and lack food.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 12:9.

    RSV translation reads, “Better is a man of humble standing who works for himself than one who plays the great man but lacks bread.”
