"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages." As You Like It, Act 2, Scene 7

"..chelovek sotvoren dlya schastya, chto schastye v nem samom, v udvaletvarenii estestvennih chelovechiskih potrebnostey, i chto vse neschastya proishodit ne ot nedostatka, a ot izlishka." (Tolstoy)
