    “Time hides no treasures; we want not its then, but its now.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “In the drawing room [of the Queen’s palace] hung a Venus and Cupid by Michaelangelo, in which, instead of a bit of drapery, the painter has placed Cupid’s foot between Venus’s thighs. Queen Caroline asked General Guise, an old connoisseur, if it was not a very fine piece? He replied “Madam, the painter was a fool, for he has placed the foot where the hand should be.””
    —Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
