tale
- "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,
- it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,
- it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,
- it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness,
- it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,
- we had everything before us, we had nothing before us,
- we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way
- - in short, the period was so far like the present period,
- that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received,
- for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."
- Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities
