Shakespeare Excels All the Others

1920

Wonderful Shakespeare

Among the English authors, Shakespeare has incomparably excelled all others. That noble extravagance of fancy, which he had in so great perfection, thoroughly qualified him to touch the weak, superstitious part of his readers' imagination and made him capable of succeeding where he had nothing to support him besides the strength of his own genius.—Addison.

All Wrong!

Some people's idea of sympathy is to back a poor invalid into a corner and tell him how miserable he is looking.—Boston Transcript.
