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

    So long as I have been here I have not willingly planted a thorn in any man’s bosom.
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    The butterfly’s attractiveness derives not only from colors and symmetry: deeper motives contribute to it. We would not think them so beautiful if they did not fly, or if they flew straight and briskly like bees, or if they stung, or above all if they did not enact the perturbing mystery of metamorphosis: the latter assumes in our eyes the value of a badly decoded message, a symbol, a sign.
    Primo Levi (1919–1987)

    He plays o’the viol-de-gamboys, and speaks three or four languages word for word without book, and hath all the good gifts of nature.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
