Ribot calls foreshortening; and this foreshortening is due to the omission of an enormous number of facts which filled them.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“Tonight I appear for the first time before a Boston audience—4,000 critics.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Thrift, thrift, Horatio, the funeral baked meats
Did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
