NUMBER:	470
AUTHOR:	William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
QUOTATION:	Ay, but to die, and go we know not where; To lie in cold obstruction and to rot; This sensible warm motion to become A kneaded clod; and the delighted spirit To bathe in fiery floods, or to reside In thrilling region of thick-ribbed ice; To be imprison’d in the viewless winds, And blown with restless violence round about The pendent world.
ATTRIBUTION:	Measure for Measure. Act iii. Sc. 1. [text]
