  6. A quotation from Kit Marlowe

    TAMBURLAINE: Then shall we fight courageously with them?
       Or look you I should play the orator?
    TECHELLES: No; cowards and faint-hearted runaways
       Look for orations when the foe is near:
       Our swords shall play the orators for us.

    Christopher "Kit" Marlowe (1564-1593) English dramatist and poet
    Tamburlaine the Great, Part 1, Act 1, sc. 2 (1586-1587)

  10. A quotation from Smith, Sydney:

    «
    To this cause of the unpopularity of sermons may be added the extremely ungraceful manner in which they are delivered. The English, generally remarkable for doing very good things in a very bad manner, seem to have reserved the maturity and plenitude of their awkwardness for the pulpit.
