Pope Pius XI (1857 - 1939)

Lewis Mumford (1895 - 1990)
How sweet and soothing is this hour of calm!

The largest property may be wrested from a child, but virtue will stand by him to the last.

I pray you bear me henceforth from the noise and rumour of the field, where I may think the remnant of my thoughts in peace, and part of this body and my soul with contemplation and devout desires.

William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616)
When we would prepare the mind by a forcible appeal, an opening quotation is a symphony preluding on the chords those tones we are about to harmonize.
