Quiet Man Cometh
We're all mad here.
"My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun.
Coral is far more red than her lips' red.
If snow is white, why, then her breasts are dun!
If hair be wires, black wires grow on her head..."
Shakespeare poking fun at the Elizabethan ideal of beauty ;). Can't remember the numnber of the sonnet. Those few lines are off the top of my head.
Tea?
