—Eliza “Mother” Stewart (1816–c. 1908)
“I know those little phrases that seem so innocuous and, once you let them in, pollute the whole of speech. Nothing is more real than nothing. They rise up out of the pit and know no rest until they drag you down into its dark.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“But stories that live longest
Are sung above the glass,
And Parnell loved his country
And Parnell loved his lass.”
