About this Raddle

Today's theme comes from Act II, Scene II of "The Merry Wives of Windsor," in which Ancient Pistol, speaking to John Falstaff, says: "Why then the world’s mine oyster, / Which I with sword will open." Oysters don’t open freely; they must be forced open, and Pistol argues the same logic applies to taking advantage of life.
