The recesses of the desolate Libyan mountains that lie behind the
temple and city of Abydus, the supposed burying place of the Holy
Osiris, a tomb was recently discovered, among the contents of
which were the papyrus rolls whereon this history is written.
- Cleopatra [Books (First Lines)]
It is a curious thing that at my age--I shall never see sixty
again--I should find myself taking up a pen to try to write a
history. I wonder what sort of a history it will be when I have
finished it, if ever I come to the end of the trip!
- King Solomon's Mines [Books (First Lines)]
