Quotation

This is my favourite Shakespeare quote. It's from Antony's death scene in Antony and Cleopatra. I am quoting from memory so the line breaks will not be perfect.

... Oh see, my women,
The crown of the earth doth melt.
[Antony dies]
O, withered is the garland of the war.
The soldier's pole is fallen; young boys and girls
Are level now with men. The odds is gone.
And there is nothing left remarkable
Beneath the visiting moon.


(I choke up even just writing that!)
