    (Berowne:) What is the end of study, let me know?
    (King:) What, that to know which else we should not know.
    (Berowne:) Things hid and barred, you mean, from common sense?
    (King:) Ay, that is study's godlike recompense.

I want to saturate myself with the elements of which they are made, and breathe their atmosphere until I am of it.

Small have continual plodders ever won,
Save base authority from others' books.
