Quotes about tragedy:
In this world there are only two tragedies. One is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.
A tragedy need not have blood and death it's enough that it all be filled with that majestic sadness that is the pleasure of tragedy.
Fables should be taught as fables, myths as myths, and miracles as poetic fantasies. To teach superstitions as truths is a most terrible thing. The child mind accepts and believes them, and only through great pain and perhaps tragedy can he be in after years relieved of them.
