POPSObama The Prideful "I fall back, blinded by the red light bathing me, dazzled at having, I, the Cock, made the Sun to rise! ... "I dare assume that the East without me must rest in idleness! ... "That which opens flower, eye, soul, and window! Certainly! My voice dispenses light! "Barackadoodledoo! In the play, Chantecler reveals his secret for making the sun rise to Pheasant-Hen, though she begins with some hesitation in believing that Chantecler possesses such power: PHEASANT-HEN: And you believe that at the sound of your voice the whole world is suffused--? ... CHANTECLER: Ah, what I say sounds mad? I will make the dawn before your very eyes! And the wish to please you adding its ardour to the ordinary forces of my soul, I shall rise in singing, as I feel, to unusual heights, and the dawn will rise more fair to-day than ever it rose before!

POPSQuotes from "Cyrano de Bergerac" "Cyrano: There. There is our soul. The same reed, the same fingers which have piped us into combat, call us softly home, in our thoughts. This is no longer the shrill call to attack, it is every shepherd who ever inhabited our land, whispering his sheep to fold. Listen. It is your hillside, your earth, your forest - your younger brother, suntanned under his red woolen cap. It is the green solitude of nights you spent beside the Sordogne. Listen my countrymen. It is our country calling." "My life's work has been to prompt others and be forgotten. Remember that night when Christian came to your balcony? That moment sums up my life. While I was below in the shadows, others climbed up to kiss the sweet rose." "I made a mess of everything, even my death."
