Definitions and quotes

Drama
Drama is the specific mode of fiction represented in performance: a play performed in a theatre, or on radio or television. Considered as a genre of poetry in general, the dramatic mode has been contrasted with the epic and the lyrical modes ever since Aristotle's Poetics (c. 335 BC)—the earliest work of dramatic theory.
Age
Old age is courteous—no one more:
For time after time he knocks at the door,
But nobody says, "Walk in, sir, pray!"
Yet turns he not from the door away,
But lifts the latch, and enters with speed,
And then they cry, "A cool one, indeed."
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Old Age.
Age
Nature in you stands on the very verge
Of her confine.
William Shakespeare, King Lear (1608), Act II, scene 4, line 148.
Age
I wasted time, and now doth time waste me.
William Shakespeare, Richard II.
