• Dame mi ángulo, iremos al río: allí, con mi música sonando lejos, traicionaré a los peces de aleta leonada. Mi anzuelo doblado atravesará sus viscosas mandíbulas; y cuando los saque, pensaré que cada uno es un Antonio, y diré: "¡Ah, ja! están atrapados".

• I did think Justice [Antony] Kennedy's opinion on Lawrence was critical to that because it really, what Lawrence in one sense was, of course, about consensual sex being something that the government can't regulate. But really in a more fundamental sense, what it was saying, "Look. Gay people are normal people, and they get to live normal lives. They're not criminals by virtue of the fact of being gay."

• The best stuff that Cicero wrote, in the first century in Rome, were the Philippics, a series of speeches that he delivered against Marc Antony, whom he thought was irreparably dismantling the Republic of Rome. Those speeches are powerful because they're not only really pointed but they're thrillingly beautiful - and that's precisely what made them dangerous: the fact that people wanted to read them.

• There are a number of World War II historians I admire: Cornelius Ryan, Mark Stoler, Antony Beevor, to name a few. As for generals, there are those I admire as combat leaders and others I admire because they're great fun to write about.

• Her seductive power, however, did not lie in her looks [...]. In reality, Cleopatra was physically unexceptional and had no political power, yet both Caesar and Antony, brave and clever men, saw none of this. What they saw was a woman who constantly transformed herself before their eyes, a one-woman spectacle.Her dress and makeup changed from day to day, but always gave her a heightened, goddesslike appearance. Her words could be banal enough, but were spoken so sweetly that listeners would find themselves remembering not what she said but how she said it.

• And when my own Mark Antony
  Against young Caesar strove,
  And Rome's whole world was set in arms,
  The cause was,--all for love.

• ¡Qué grandes males no ha hecho la mujer!
  ¿A quién traicionó el Capitolio? A una mujer;
  ¿Quién hizo perder a Marco Antonio el mundo? Una mujer;
  ¿Quién fue la causa de una larga guerra de diez años,
  ¿Y que al fin hizo cenizas a la vieja Troya? Una mujer;
  ¡Mujer destructiva, condenable, engañosa!

• When Abba Anthony thought about the depths of the judgments of God, he asked, 'Lord, how is it that some die when they are young, while others drag on to extreme old age? Why are there those who are poor and those who are rich? Why do wicked men prosper and why are the just in need?' He heard a voice answering him, 'Antony, keep your attention on yourself; these things are according to the judgment of God, and it is not to your advantage to know anything about them.'

• Here was a woman about the year 1800 writing without hate, without bitterness, without fear, without protest, without preaching. That was how Shakespeare wrote, I thought, looking at Antony and Cleopatra; and when people compare Shakespeare and Jane Austen, they may mean that the minds of both had consumed all impediments; and for that reason we do not know Jane Austen and we do not know Shakespeare, and for that reason Jane Austen pervades every word that she wrote, and so does Shakespeare.

• Lee mucho; es un gran observador y mira a través de los hechos de los hombres: no le gustan las obras de teatro, como a ti, Antonio; no oye música; rara vez sonríe, y sonríe de tal manera Como si se burlara de sí mismo y despreciara su espíritu Que podría ser movido a sonreír por cualquier cosa. Los hombres como el nunca estan tranquilos cuando ven a alguien mas grande que ellos, y por eso son muy peligrosos.

• Girls are taught to sing high and pretty, like Antony, not low and from the guts like Nina Simone. But we're slowly trying to change that. There are so many things we're not told growing up, and it's our true feminist responsibility to take the truth to the people who need to hear it.
