These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“I think the authors of that notable instrument [the Declaration of Independence] intended to include all men.”

My words for stour, hath no blood of crimson
But is fit only to rot in womanish peace”
