113. oldal - The truth is, that the spectators are always in their senses, and know, from the first act to the last, that the stage is only a stage, and that the players are only players.
297. oldal - ... mind ; which in his case, as in the case of all who are distressed with the same malady of imagination, transfers to others its own feelings.
