"Antiquity is a species of aristocracy with which it is not easy to be on visiting terms."

Previous Quote

This siren, this goat-footed bard, this half human visitor to our age the hag-ridden and enchanted woods of Celtic antiquity. One catches in his company that flavour of final purposelessness, inner responsibility, existence outside or away from our Saxon good and evil, mixed with cunning, remorselessness, love of power.

— John Maynard Keynes
