    “Learn hence for ancient rules a just esteem;
    To copy Nature is to copy them.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “The hard truth is that what may be acceptable in elite culture may not be acceptable in mass culture, that tastes which pose only innocent ethical issues as the property of a minority become corrupting when they become more established. Taste is context, and the context has changed.”
