Alfred Lord Tennyson In Memoriam Quotes By W. H. Auden

In actual fact, however, the revolt of Ibsen and Shaw against the conventional nineteenth century drama could very well be described as a return to Shakespeare, as an attempt once again to present human beings in their historical and social setting and not, as playwrights since the Restoration had done, either as wholly private or as embodiments of the social manners of a tiny class. Shakespeare's plays, it is true, are not, in the Shavian sense, "dramas of thought," that is to say, not one of his characters is an intellectual: it is true, as Shaw says, that, when stripped of their wonderful diction, the philosophical and moral views expressed by his characters are commonplaces, but the number of people in any generation or society whose thoughts are not commonplace is very small indeed. On the other hand, there is hardly one of his plays which does not provide unending food for thought, if one cares to think about it. — W. H. Auden

Alfred Lord Tennyson In Memoriam Quotes By Ursula K. Le Guin

He was one whose power was akin to, and as strong as, the Old Powers of the earth; one who talked with dragons, and held off earthquakes with his word.

The glory of the sky touched his dusty hair, and turned the thistle gold for a little while. — Ursula K. Le Guin

A complete transformation seemed to have place in my life overnight.

Benedict Allen gives you the impression that he hasn't done any research at all, and I am sure he has.

It's very successful as technique. — John Gimlette
