Famous quotes containing the words orange and/or mystery:

    Give not this rotten orange to your friend;
    She’s but the sign and semblance of her honor.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    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)
