“Yet seemed it winter still, and, you away,
As with your shadow I with these did play.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“As in a theatre the eyes of men,
After a well-graced actor leaves the stage,
Are idly bent on him that enters next,
Thinking his prattle to be tedious,
Even so, or with much more contempt, men’s eyes
Did scowl on gentle Richard.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“We’re too unseparate. And going home
From company means coming to our senses.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
