Is to be frighted out of fear, and in that mood
The dove will peck the estridge; and I see still
A diminution in our captain's brain
Restores his heart. When valor preys on reason,
It eats the sword it fights with.
Shakespeare, Anthony & Cleopatra, III.xiii
I remember (dimly) when the only thing I had to do on a Monday morning was watch Sesame Street.
