-while testing styles.
-
-I'll complete this file when I've reorganized my books and audio cd's.

-If someone makes a nice bibtex file of these, the quotes can also be
-used in testing bibliographic references and citations.

+% this original file has been renamed to samples.tex and describes the
+% short quotes that can be used in test files
-% Tufte: This quote will always produce hyphenated text, apart from the content,
-% it's a pretty good test case for protruding.
-
-% Ward: I should find a quote in the extremely well written Rare Earth as well. All Wards
-% books excell.
-
-% A Short History of Nearly Everything: I wish that I had the memory to remember this book
-% verbatim.
-
-% Chaos and Harmony: very nice and well written book, but the typography is rather bad:
-% quite visible inter-character spacing in a text that can be typeset quite well by \TeX.
+\starttext
-% The Universe in a Nutshell: a beautiful designed book, (companion of A Short History
-% of Time).
+see \type {samples.tex}
-% The World Without Us: A properly typeset, very readable book. Read it and you'll look at
-% the world around you differently (and a bit more freightened).
+\blank
-% Dirt, The Erosion of Civilizations: one of those books that you buy immediately after
-% reading a few sentences. Also one of those books that every politician should read.

-% The Making of the Fittest: nice sample for color ans subsentence testing. A very
-% readable book but unfortunately it has inter-character spacing.
