The passages collected in this book have been "quotations" for well over a thousand years. Many of them exist only because they were "quoted," the works from which they are taken having been lost. In the case of the most celebrated poets whose works survive in toto or nearly so, a collection of passages which have never been quoted during the last two millennia would make a very slim book indeed.
