Ghosts

• “Accounting for the uncommon behavior of ghosts, Heine mentions somebody's ingenious theory to the effect that they are as much afraid of us as we of them. Not quite, if I may judge from such tables of comparative speed as I am able to compile from memories of my own experience.”

• “Behind every man now alive stand 30 ghosts, for that is the ratio by which the dead outnumber the living.”

• “Whence and what are thou, execrable shape?”

• “Ghosts are not the souls of the dead, but the souls of people written out of history when history changes.”

• “I kept on ignoring him. The dead are only ghosts, after all.”

• “The unexpected disappearance of Mr. Canning from the scene, followed by the transient and embarrassed phantom of Lord Goderich. (Quoted, "He flits across the stage a transient and embarrassed phantom.")”
