Prelude Act

Famous quotes containing the words prelude and/or act:

    I am a prelude to better players, O my brothers! An example! Follow my example!
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    No legislation can suppress nature; all life rushes to reproduction; our procreative faculties are matured early, while passion is strong, and judgment and self-restraint weak. We cannot alter this, but we can alter what is conventional. We can refuse to brand an act of nature as a crime, and to impute to vice what is due to ignorance.
    Tennessee Claflin (1846–1923)
