Too much traffic with a quotation book begets a conviction of ignorance in a sensitive reader. Not only is there a mass of quotable stuff he never quotes, but an even vaster realm of which he has never heard.

Robertson Davies

One man's justice is another's injustice one man's beauty another's ugliness one man's wisdom another's folly.
