14. Wheras printers, booksellers, and other persons,
have of late frequently taken the liberty of
printing... books, and other writings, without the
consent of the authors... to their very great
detriment, and too often to the ruin of them and
their families: For preventing therefore such
practices for the future, and for the
encouragement of learned men to compose and

STATUTE OF ANNE (1710)
16. Oscar Wilde nr 18
av Napoleon Sarony

”useful, new, harmonious,

33. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is
normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of
the way the world works. Anything that’s invented
between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new
and exciting and revolutionary and you can
probably get a career in it. Anything invented after
you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of
things.
