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

    We shall yet acknowledge His wisdom and our own error therein.
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Oh! mystery of man, from what a depth
    Proceed thy honours. I am lost, but see
    In simple childhood something of the base
    On which thy greatness stands; but this I feel,
    That from thyself it comes, that thou must give,
    Else never canst receive. The days gone by
    Return upon me almost from the dawn
    Of life: the hiding-places of man’s power
    Open; I would approach them, but they close.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    A great many quite good plays could be performed with rhythmic howls in the place of dialogue and lose almost nothing by the change.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
