O shame to men! Devil with devil damned firm concord holds; men only disagree of creatures rational, though under hope of heavily grace, and, God proclaiming peace, Yet live in hatred, enimity and strife among themselves, and levy cruel wars wasting the earth, each other to destroy: as if (which might induce us to accord) man had not hellish foes enow besides, that day and night for his destruction to wait!

I just acquired the Penguin Little Black Classics Boxed set. It's truly beautiful. I'm planing to read one or two of these a week and will be making a lot of posts about these in the near future.

A grayscale photo from across a wood grain table looking at a boxed set of 80 penguin classic books with a small retro style radio at the end of the table, a globe peering from the darkness behind and poster of Frank Herbert's Dune on the wall.
