    “Here stopped the good old sire, and wept for joy
    In silent raptures of the hopeful boy.

    That for anointed dullness he was made.”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)

    “Never is a historic deed already completed when it is done but always only when it is handed down to posterity. What we call “history” by no means represents the sum total of all significant deeds.... World history ... only comprises that tiny lighted sector which chanced to be placed in the spotlight by poetic or scholarly depictions.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    “Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
