A quotation caught my eye this weekend in NYC while walking in Central Park's hill-side Shakespeare's Garden with its sequestered nooks and quite hide-aways:

"O how full of briers is this working-day world." From As You Like It, i, 3.

Probably thousands taking a break from this hyperactive "city that never sleeps", have smiled wryly on coming across this ground level plaque in the soon-to-be overgrown patch of berry canes. JOHN
