Famous quotes containing the words basic and/or tricks:

    ... the basic experience of everyone is the experience of human limitation.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    Man, proud man,
    Drest in a little brief authority,
    Most ignorant of what he’s most assur’d,
    His glassy essence, like an angry ape,
    Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven,
    As make the angels weep.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
