Prologue Quotations
What is past is prologue.
William Shakespeare
A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce, or a tragedy, or perhaps both.
James Madison
Courtship is to marriage, as a very witty prologue to a very dull play.
William Congreve

Graham Nelson
