Wikiquote:Searching

To search Wikiquote: The difference between Go (same as enter) and Search is that Go first looks for an article with the given string as its title, and if one is found immediately goes to the indicated article. If Go fails to find an article, it then automatically executes Search which is a full-text search for the given words. Important search tips:
 * There should be a small search box at the side of the screen, marked search, followed by Go and Search. Just type what you're looking for into the search box and press the Enter key. Or, click Go or Search.

 * When Wikiquote Search is disabled for performance reasons, Go can still be used to look up titled pages.

 * Don't search for only words in quotes. Try the search without quotes first. If that's not good enough, put as many words as possible outside the quotes or add some more to narrow the search.

 * While Go is usually, but not always, case insensitive, Search is always case insensitive. More detail about case sensitivity is provided below.

 * Search is a treated as a secondary function of the MediaWiki software and is sometimes unreliable and even completely disabled for performance reasons. If you can't find something you're expecting to find, please try an external search engine.

External search engines
Various search engines can provide domain-specific searches, which lets you search Wikiquote specifically. Searches are based on the text as shown by the browser, so wiki markup is irrelevant. Depending on your browser, you may also be able to use tools that allow you to search Wikiquote using bookmarklets.

In general, external search engines are faster than a Wikiquote search. However, because the search engine's cache is based on when the site was indexed, the search may not return newly created pages. Similarly, the search engine's cached version of the page will not be as up-to-date as the link to Wikiquote itself. Also, when returning Wikiquote articles in a regular search, mirrors and forks of Wikiquote content frequently rank higher than the actual Wikiquote articles because of search engine optimization techniques.

These issues may be less of a problem when using certain search engines that process Wikiquote differently:

 * Yahoo! includes Wikiquote as part of its content acquisition program and gets a regular datafeed.
 * Clusty downloads and processes the database regularly, generating automatic abstracts and image thumbnails and meaningfully parsing redirects, disambiguations, and categories.

Google
By following the links below, you can use the Google search engine to search Wikiquote - either all languages, or English-only. Google indexes all namespaces.

Search facility of Wikiquote
The native Wikiquote search feature via the search box and Search button that appears on every Wikiquote page is not available during peak hours or other periods of high server activity (which may last for days). Here are some hints for using it effectively (see also User preferences help, "Search result settings" section, and Go button).

Limiting results
Wikiquote's default search mode will turn up results with any of the words in your query. For instance, search engine turns up many results containing only "search" but not "engine" or only "engine" but not "search" in addition to the ones you probably wanted, which contain both words.

To limit to results that include all words, put a "+" at the beginning of each word: +search +engine returns only pages containing both words, like Google's default mode.

You can also do a phrase search by enclosing words in quotes: "search engine" turns up a smaller set of results, which not only have both words but have them in order.

To exclude results that include some word, put a "-" at the beginning: -search -engine

Avoid short and common words
If your search terms include a common "stop word" (such as "the", "one", "your", "more", "right", "while", "when", "who", "which", "such", "every", "about") it will be ignored by the search system. If you're trying to do a phrase search or all-words-only search, this may result in returning nothing at all. Short numbers, and words that appear in half of all articles, will also not be found. In this case, drop those words and rerun the search.

See Common words, searching for which is not possible for the stop words filtered out by the database. From there one can at least go to an article with a stop word as title. Searching for the combination of one or more words and the common word "not" gives a database query syntax error due to a bug in the software.

Case sensitivity
Search is always case-insensitive, so searches for "fortran", "Fortran" and "FORTRAN" all return the same results.

Go is always case-insensitive for the first character of the article title, and in most cases for the entire title. Go is case-sensitive only if an article has a name including a mixture of capitalized and uncapitalized letters and is neither all initial cap or all lower case following the first word. For example, consider the article French and Indian Wars. Entering 'french and indian wars' and pressing "enter" or Go will not take the reader to this article. However, 'French and Indian Wars' will work, as will 'french and Indian Wars'. If the article name were 'French And Indian Wars' or 'French and indian wars' entering any capitalization variant would suffice. Redirects can be used to work around this problem. For example, searches for any miscapitalization of 'Isle of Wight' match Isle of wight which redirects the user to the actual article named Isle of Wight.

Wildcards
You can use some limited wildcards if you really want to. Look up "fulltext search" on http://www.mysql.com/ and look down under 'boolean search' for the details. However, wildcard searches are slower, so go easy on the poor server.

Words with special characters
In a search for a word with a diaeresis, such as Sint Odiliënberg, it depends whether this ë is stored as one character or as "&euml;". In the first case one can simply search for Odilienberg (or Odiliënberg); in the second case it can only be found by searching for Odili, euml and/or nberg. This is actually a bug that should be fixed -- the entities should be folded into their raw character equivalents so all searches on them are equivalent. See also Special characters.

Words in single quotes
If a word appears in an article with single quotes, you can only find it if you search for the word with quotes. Since this is rarely desirable it is better to use double quotes in articles, for which this problem does not arise. See the manual of style for more info.

An apostrophe is identical to a single quote, therefore Mu'ammar can be found searching for exactly that (and not otherwise). A word with apostrophe s is an exception in that it can be found also searching for the word without the apostrophe and the s.

Namespaces searched by default
The search only applies to the namespaces selected in the user's preferences. To search the other namespaces check or uncheck the tickboxes in "Search in namespaces" box found at the bottom of a search results page. Depending on the browser, a box may still be checked from a previous search, but without being effective any longer! To make sure, uncheck and recheck it.

Searching the image namespace means searching the image descriptions, i.e. the first parts of the image description pages.

Redirects can be excluded
Check or uncheck the tickbox "List redirects" in "Search in namespaces" box found at the bottom of a search results page.

The source text is searched
The source text (what one sees in the edit box, also called wiki text) is searched. This distinction is relevant for piped links, for interlanguage links (to find links to Chinese articles, search for zh, not for Zhongwen), special characters (if ê is coded as &ecirc; it is found searching for ecirc), etc.

Delay in updating the search index
For reasons of efficiency and priority, very recent changes are not always immediately taken into account in searches.

At the moment, the search engine uses an index that isn't updated at all. This is temporary.

Multi-lingual Wikiquote search
There is a meta-search available that allows you to search different language Wikiquotes at the same time.

Multi-lingual Wikiquote search (disabled)

You can also do this using Google.

Using Mozilla to automatically search
Listed below are ways to search Wikiquote with Mozilla-based browsers, including Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape 6 and 7, and Beonex Communicator.

Search Wikiquote from the sidebar search tab or address bar
Works with: Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape 6/7, Beonex Communicator.

Mozilla, Beonex Communicator, and Netscape 6 & 7 come with a sidebar that allows a user to search the Wikiquote site, and Firefox has a toolbar item to do the same. To install the search plugin that tells Mozilla how to search Wikiquote, do the following:

 * 1) Go to one of the following sources of Wikiquote search plugins. The Mycroft plugins are sometimes out of date, and plugins from the second source may work better.
 * 2) Search plugins from Mycroft
 * 3) Alternative search plugins
 * 4) There are versions for many languages, so pick the language local to your area.
 * 5) If JavaScript is enabled, clicking on the name of the search plugin will automatically install the search plugin.
 * 6) If you can't install the search plugin automatically, the second source above lets you right-click on the plugin and save it to disk, or download a ZIP file containing all available plugins. Save the downloaded .src file in the searchplugins directory where Mozilla is installed and restart the browser to use the new plugin.

To make Wikiquote your default search engine in Mozilla, Beonex Communicator, and Netscape 6/7:

 * 1) Go to Edit, Preferences.
 * 2) Expand the Navigator tree and choose Internet Search.
 * 3) Choose Wikiquote as your default search engine.

With Wikiquote selected as your default engine, searches can be conducted via the search sidebar tab, search box, or the web address bar.

Search Wikiquote using a bookmarklet
Works with: Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape 6/7, Beonex Communicator.

Wikiquote can also be searched via a bookmarklet.

In Mozilla Firefox, follow these steps:

 * 1) Right click in the search field at the top of the page, and select "Add a Keyword for this Search".
 * 2) Enter "Wikiquote Quicksearch" for the name.
 * 3) Enter "w" (without the quotes) for the keyword.
 * 4) Change the bookmark folder if you wish, and click "Add".

In Mozilla Suite, Netscape 6/7 and Beonex Communicator, follow these steps:

 * 1) Right click on the following web address and select "Bookmark this link": http://en.Wikiquote.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=%s
 * 2) Go to Bookmarks, Manage Bookmarks. Choose the bookmark you have just created. Highlight the Bookmark and click Properties.
 * 3) In the dialogue that comes up, put a lowercase w in the keyword box.
 * 4) Click OK and close the properties box, then close the bookmark manager.

In Camino, use the Mozilla Suite directions. Use Get Info (cmd-I) in the bookmarks manager to bring up the properties dialogue.

To search, go to the web address bar, enter "w SEARCH_QUERY" (without the quotes), and press enter.

Search Wikiquote via an update to prefs.js
Works with: K-Meleon.

K-Meleon has a search button that can be used to search Google. Wikiquote can also be searched. To switch search engines do these things:

 * 1) Close K-Meleon.
 * 2) Open up prefs.js with a text editor. The file should be in your K-Meleon\Profiles\PROFILE_NAME\RANDOM_STRING.slt\ directory.
 * 3) Add this line, and save <tt>prefs.js</tt>.

user_pref("kmeleon.general.searchEngine", "http://en.Wikiquote.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=");

Open up K-Meleon and press the search button to search Wikiquote. To go back to Google or to use another search service, edit <tt>prefs.js</tt> and delete this line:

user_pref("kmeleon.general.searchEngine", "http://en.Wikiquote.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=");

Make sure K-Meleon is closed before editing prefs.js.

Advanced: Wikiquote search field for Opera browser
All Opera versions 6, 7, and 8 use a customizable text file called search.ini. This file should only be edited while Opera is not running. The following example replaces one of the existing pre-defined search engines. It is up to the user to avoid conflicts of shortcut key (key=). By default 'w' is taken by the download.com search, so either this or the Wikiquote one should be changed. Furthermore the 'Search Engine ##' should be replaced with a free number: '12' is free by default. The Search.ini editor makes editing trivial (see external link). [Search Engine ##] Name=&Wikiquote URL=http://www.Wikiquote.org/w/wiki.phtml?search=%s Query= Key=w Is post=0 Has endseparator=0 Encoding=utf-8 Search Type=8

Opera 8
Opera appears to take a copy of the "search.ini" and load it into an internal buffer of some type. After editing the file with your new entry you must change the "File Version" at the top of the file to allow for your changes to be seen in the browser.

New search buttons to drag
A new kind of search has been added, which no longer requires manual editing. This will create a button on the mainbar, which can then be put anywhere you wish, even in the start panel. See http://nontroppo.org/opsed/download.php?dd=e&plugin=100&type=SE7 for a Wikiquote search button.

Older Versions
Most importantly, in 7.0, you should back up your customized search.ini because the file is overwritten by the Opera installer. This is no longer true in 7.10 and later.

In Opera 6 and 7.0, the menu accelerator letter is defined by the & in the name. In current versions the accelerator is automatically generated and may no longer be the same as the key.

 * How to edit Opera's search.ini (recommended reading prior to hand-editing search.ini)

Searching with TomeRaider
After downloading the TomeRaider database one can search the Wikiquote version offline. One can also search for parts of words.

Searching the page history
To search the text that appears only in the page history, you must export the text to XML format first.

If you cannot find an appropriate page on Wikiquote
If there is no appropriate page on Wikiquote, consider creating a page, since you can edit Wikiquote right now. Or consider adding what you were looking for to the Requested articles page. Or if you have a question to be answered by Wikiquote, ask it at the Reference desk.

Talk:Romeo and Juliet

What does you kiss by the book mean?

I like to think that it means that Romeo is a good kisser. He follows all the instructions that would be written in a kind of "Kissing for Dummies" book, if such a book existed. though it is possible, if unlikely, that it is taking the mick

--207.65.139.194 21:52, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)I think that you "kiss by the book" means that he does not have alot of practice and that she can do much beeter but also that he may be a gook kisser. "Kissing for Dummies" that's funny but could be a gook book! lol

brittany

Or..
I agree with what that girl said, but in my English book >we're studying Romeo&Juliet right now<, it says he either kissed very well, or Juliet was making fun of him and saying he kisses poorly and had like "training" from a book, or what not. So..Yeah!

-Kaylee

I think since Romeo himself reads a lot of love poetry, he takes ideals of love and applies them to his feelings for Juliet. He kisses the way he thinks he should kiss by following the standards in the poetry he reads.

It means Romeo is a bad kisser and that he doesn't do that often

So how many quotes are allowed on this page? 9? 10? 11? 12? This page needs to be trimmed.(StarWarsFanBoy 19:29, 30 November 2009 (UTC))

Four Quartets

Four Quartets by T. S. Eliot is a work of four poems: Burnt Norton (1935), East Coker (1940), The Dry Salvages (1941), and Little Gidding (1942).

Burnt Norton (1935)

Are both perhaps present in time future And time future contained in time past.'''
 * '''Time present and time past
 * I

Point to one end, which is always present. Footfalls echo in the memory Down the passage which we did not take Towards the door we never opened Into the rose-garden. My words echo Thus, in your mind. ''' But to what purpose Disturbing the dust on a bowl of rose-leaves I do not know.
 * '''What might have been and what has been
 * I

Hidden excitedly, containing laughter. ''' Go, go, go, said the bird: human kind Cannot bear very much reality.  Time past and time future What might have been and what has been Point to one end, which is always present.'''
 * Go, said the bird, for the leaves were full of children,
 * II

Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is, But neither arrest nor movement.''' And do not call it fixity, Where past and future are gathered. Neither movement from nor towards, Neither ascent nor decline. '''Except for the point, the still point, There would be no dance, and there is only the dance. I can only say, there we have been: but I cannot say where And I cannot say, how long, for that is to place it in time.'''
 * '''At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless;
 * II

Allow but a little consciousness.''' To be conscious is not to be in time But only in time can the moment in the rose-garden, The moment in the arbour where the rain beat, The moment in the draughty church at smokefall Be remembered; involved with past and future. Only through time time is conquered.
 * '''Time past and time future
 * V

Only in time; but that which is only living Can only die. Words, after speech, reach Into the silence.
 * Words move, music moves
 * V

And the end and the beginning were always there Before the beginning and after the end. And all is always now. '''Words strain, Crack and sometimes break, under the burden, Under the tension, slip, slide, perish, Will not stay still.'''
 * Or say that the end precedes the beginning,
 * V

Not in itself desirable; '''Love is itself unmoving, Only the cause and end of movement,''' Timeless, and undesiring Except in the aspect of time Caught in the form of limitation Between un-being and being.
 * Desire itself is movement
 * V

Even while the dust moves There rises the hidden laughter Of children in the foliage Quick now, here, now, always— Ridiculous the waste sad time Stretching before and after.
 * Sudden in a shaft of sunlight
 * V

East Coker (1940)

 * In my beginning is my end.
 * I

At best, only a limited value In the knowledge derived from experience. The knowledge imposes a pattern, and falsifies, For the pattern is new in every moment And every moment is a new and shocking Valuation of all we have been. We are only undeceived Of that which, deceiving, could no longer harm.
 * There is, it seems to us,
 * II

Of the wisdom of old men, but rather of their folly, Their fear of fear and frenzy, their fear of possession, Of belonging to another, or to others, or to God. '''The only wisdom we can hope to acquire Is the wisdom of humility: humility is endless.'''
 * Do not let me hear
 * II

The vacant interstellar spaces, the vacant into the vacant, … And we all go with them, into the silent funeral, Nobody's funeral, for there is no one to bury.
 * O dark dark dark. They all go into the dark,
 * III

For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love, For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting. Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought: So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
 * I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
 * III

Something I have said before. I shall say it again. Shall I say it again?''' In order to arrive there, To arrive where you are, to get from where you are not, You must go by a way wherein there is no ecstasy. '''In order to arrive at what you do not know You must go by a way which is the way of ignorance. In order to possess what you do not possess You must go by the way of dispossession. In order to arrive at what you are not You must go through the way in which you are not. ''' And what you do not know is the only thing you know And what you own is what you do not own And where you are is where you are not.
 * '''You say I am repeating
 * III

The bloody flesh our only food''': In spite of which we like to think That we are sound, substantial flesh and blood —  Again, in spite of that, we call this Friday good.
 * '''The dripping blood our only drink,
 * IV

Is a wholy new start, and a different kind of failure Because one has only learnt to get the better of words For the thing one no longer has to say, or the way in which One is no longer disposed to say it.'''
 * '''Trying to use words, and every attempt
 * V

Is a new beginning''', a raid on the inarticulate, With shabby equipment always deteriorating In the general mess of imprecision of feeling, Undisciplined squads of emotion. And '''what there is to conquer By strength and submission, has already been discovered Once or twice, or several times, by men whom one cannot hope To emulate —but there is no competition— There is only the fight to recover what has been lost And found and lost again and again: and now, under conditions That seem unpropitious.''' But perhaps neither gain nor loss. '''For us, there is only the trying. The rest is not our business.'''
 * And so '''each venture
 * V

The world becomes stranger, the pattern more complicated Of dead and living.''' Not the intense moment Isolated, with no before and after, But a lifetime burning in every moment And not the lifetime of one man only But of old stones that cannot be deciphered.'''
 * Home is where one starts from. As we grow older
 * V

When here and now cease to matter.''' Old men ought to be explorers '''Here or there does not matter We must be still and still moving Into another intensity For a further union, a deeper communion''' Through the dark cold and the empty desolation, The wave cry, the wind cry, the vast waters Of the petrel and the porpoise. In my end is my beginning.
 * '''Love is most nearly itself
 * V

The Dry Salvages (1941)

Is a strong brown god''' —sullen, untamed and intractable, Patient to some degree, at first recognised as a frontier; Useful, untrustworthy, as a conveyor of commerce; Then only a problem confronting the builder of bridges.
 * '''I do not know much about gods; but I think that the river
 * I

 * The river is within us, the sea is all about us
 * I

The shattered lobsterpot, the broken oar And the gear of foreign dead men.
 * It tosses up our losses, the torn seine,
 * I

Many gods and many voices.'''
 * '''The sea has many voices,
 * I

That the past has another pattern, and ceases to be a mere sequence— Or even development: the latter a partial fallacy Encouraged by superficial notions of evolution, Which becomes, in the popular mind, a means of disowning the past.
 * It seems, as one becomes older,
 * II

Fruition, fulfilment, security or affecton, Or even a very good dinner, but the sudden illumination — '''We had the experience but missed the meaning, And approach to the meaning restores the experience In a different form, beyond any meaning We can assign to happiness.''' I have said before That '''the past experience revived in the meaning Is not the experience of one life only But of many generations — not forgetting Something that is probably quite ineffable'''
 * The moments of happiness — not the sense of well-being,
 * II

(Whether, or not, due to misunderstanding, Having hoped for the wrong things or dreaded the wrong things, Is not in question) '''are likewise permanent With such permanence as time has. We appreciate this better In the agony of others, nearly experienced, Involving ourselves, than in our own.''' For our own past is covered by the currents of action, But the torment of others remains an experience Unqualified, unworn by subsequent attrition. People change, and smile: but the agony abides.
 * Now, we come to discover that the moments of agony
 * II

Like the river with its cargo of dead negroes, cows and chicken coops, The bitter apple, and the bite in the apple. And the ragged rock in the restless waters, Waves wash over it, fogs conceal it; On a halcyon day it is merely a monument, In navigable weather it is always a seamark To lay a course by: but in the sombre season Or the sudden fury, is what it always was.
 * Time the destroyer is time the preserver,
 * II

That time is no healer: the patient is no longer here.
 * You cannot face it steadily, but this thing is sure,
 * III

Into different lives, or into any future; You are not the same people who left that station Or who will arrive at any terminus, While the narrowing rails slide together behind you'''
 * '''Fare forward, travellers! not escaping from the past
 * III

You are not those who saw the harbour Receding, or those who will disembark.''' '''Here between the hither and the farther shore While time is withdrawn, consider the future And the past with an equal mind.'''
 * '''Fare forward, you who think that you are voyaging;
 * III

You can receive this: 'on whatever sphere of being The mind of a man may be intent At the time of death — that is the one action '''(And the time of death is every moment) Which shall fructify in the lives of others: And do not think of the fruit of action. Fare forward.'''
 * '''At the moment which is not of action or inaction
 * III

The point of intersection of the timeless With time, is an occupation for the saint — No occupation either, but something given And taken, in a lifetime's death in love, Ardour and selflessness and self-surrender.
 * To apprehend
 * V

Moment, the moment in and out of time, The distraction fit, lost in a shaft of sunlight, The wild thyme unseen, or the winter lightning Or the waterfall, or music heard so deeply That it is not heard at all, but you are the music While the music lasts.'''
 * '''For most of us, there is only the unattended
 * V

Here the impossible union Of spheres of evidence is actual, Here the past and future Are conquered, and reconciled…
 * The hint half guessed, the gift half understood, is Incarnation.
 * V

From past and future also. For most of us, this is the aim Never here to be realised; Who are only undefeated Because we have gone on trying;''' We, content at the last If our temporal reversion nourish (Not too far from the yew-tree) The life of significant soil.
 * '''Right action is freedom
 * V

Little Gidding (1942)

Taking the route you would be likely to take From the place you would be likely to come from, If you came this way in may time, you would find the hedges White again, in May, with voluptuary sweetness.
 * If you came this way,
 * I

Is only a shell, a husk of meaning From which the purpose breaks only when it is fulfilled If at all. '''Either you had no purpose Or the purpose is beyond the end you figured And is altered in fulfilment.''' There are other places Which also are the world's end, some at the sea jaws, Or over a dark lake, in a desert or a city— But this is the nearest, in place and time, Now and in England.
 * And what you thought you came for
 * I

Taking any route, starting from anywhere, At any time or at any season, It would always be the same: you would have to put off Sense and notion. You are not here to verify, Instruct yourself, or inform curiosity Or carry report. You are here to kneel Where prayer has been valid. And prayer is more Than an order of words, the conscious occupation Of the praying mind, or the sound of the voice praying. '''And what the dead had no speech for, when living, They can tell you, being dead: the communication Of the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living.'''
 * If you came this way,
 * I

Is England and nowhere. Never and always.
 * Here, the intersection of the timeless moment
 * I

My thoughts and theory which you have forgotten. These things have served their purpose: let them be. So with your own, and pray they be forgiven By others, as '''I pray you to forgive Both bad and good. Last season's fruit is eaten And the fullfed beast shall kick the empty pail. For last year's words belong to last year's language And next year's words await another voice.'''
 * I am not eager to rehearse
 * II; "fullfed" has in recent years sometimes been misquoted in print as "fulfilled".

To purify the dialect of the tribe And urge the mind to aftersight and foresight, Let me disclose the gifts reserved for age To set a crown upon your lifetime's effort. First, the cold fricton of expiring sense Without enchantment, offering no promise But bitter tastelessness of shadow fruit As body and soul begin to fall asunder. Second, the conscious impotence of rage At human folly, and the laceration Of laughter at what ceases to amuse. '''And last, the rending pain of re-enactment Of all that you have done, and been; the shame Of things ill done and done to others' harm Which once you took for exercise of virtue. Then fools' approval stings, and honour stains. From wrong to wrong the exasperated spirit Proceeds, unless restored by that refining fire Where you must move in measure, like a dancer.'''
 * Since our concern was speech, and speech impelled us
 * II

History may be freedom. See, now they vanish, The faces and places, with the self which, as it could, loved them, To become renewed, transfigured, in another pattern. '''Sin is Behovely, but All shall be well, and All manner of thing shall be well.'''
 * History may be servitude,
 * III; "Sin is Behovely, but All shall be well, and All manner of thing shall be well." and similar lines later in the poem, are actually quotations of Julian of Norwich.

We cannot restore old policies Or follow an antique drum.
 * We cannot revive old factions
 * III

We have taken from the defeated What they had to leave us — a symbol: A symbol perfected in death. And all shall be well and All manner of thing shall be well By the purification of the motive In the ground of our beseeching.'''
 * '''Whatever we inherit from the fortunate
 * III

With flame of incandescent terror Of which the tongues declare The one discharge from sin and error. The only hope, or else despair Lies in the choice of pyre or pyre — To be redeemed from fire by fire.
 * The dove descending breaks the air

Love is the unfamiliar Name Behind the hands that wove The intolerable shirt of flame Which human power cannot remove. We only live, only suspire Consumed by either fire or fire. '''
 * '''Who then devised the torment? Love.

And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from.

Every poem an epitaph.''' And any action Is a step to the block, to the fire, down the sea's throat Or to an illegible stone: and that is where we start. We die with the dying: See, they depart, and we go with them.

See, they return, and bring us with them. The moment of the rose and the moment of the yew-tree Are of equal duration. '''A people without history Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern Of timeless moments.'''

On a winter's afternoon, in a secluded chapel History is now and England.

L'expérience tient une école où les leçons coûtent cher mais la seule où les insensés peuvent s'instruire.

Experience is a school whose lessons are high-priced, but it is the only school where the nonsensical can learn.

One word for this, well not a word but several characters: "?????"

Beats me. If I had a clue how to search Wikiquote, I'd edit it...

Wow. This guy's a smart man/woman/non-genderspecific person to know when he's defeated.

Dunno, guys, it makes nonsensical sense to me. -- RW
