All’s well that ends well – Shakepseare 1996


“Helena: (…) withal, full oft we see
Cold wisdom waiting on superfluous folly.” (Shakespeare, 1996, p.754).




“Lafeu: 
They say miracles are past; and we have our
philosophical persons, to make modern and
familiar, things supernatural and causeless. Hence
is it that we make trifles of terrors; ensconcing our-
selves into seeming knowledge, when we should
submit ourselves to an unknown fear. Why, ‘tis
the rarest argument of wonder that hath shot out
in our latter times.
