Samuel Johnson Quotes

Shakespeare's Plays Are Not In The Rigorous And Critical Sense Either Tragedies Or Comedies, But Compositions Of A Distinct Kind; Exhibiting The Real State Of Sublunary Nature, Which Partakes Of Good And Evil, Joy And Sorrow, Mingled With Endless Variety Of Proportion And Innumerable Modes Of Combination; And Expressing The Course Of The World, In Which The Loss Of One Is The Gain Of Another; In Which, At The Same Time, The Reveller Is Hasting To His Wine, And The Mourner Burying His Friend; In Which The Malignity Of One Is Sometimes Defeated By The Frolick Of Another; And Many Mischiefs And Many Benefits Are Done And Hindered Without Design.
