I had something clever to write...but then I forgot it. In lieu of my own cleverness, I will instead leave you with two clever quotes from Robertson Davies...

We dismiss great legends at our peril, for they are the riddling voices by means of which great truths buried deep in the spirit of man offer themselves to the world. - A Mixture of Frailties, The Salterton Trilogy

and

Most adolescents are destructive, I suppose, but the worst are certainly those who justify what they do with a half-baked understanding of somebody's philosophy." - World of Wonders, The Deptford Trilogy
