Mystery Plays

Famous quotes containing the words mystery and/or plays:

    So we’ll live,
    And pray, and sing, and tell old tales, and laugh
    At gilded butterflies, and hear poor rogues
    Talk of court news; and we’ll talk with them too—
    Who loses and who wins; who’s in, who’s out—
    And take upon ‘s the mystery of things,
    As if we were God’s spies.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    For truly it is to be noted, that children’s plays are not sports, and should be deemed as their most serious actions.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
