Laurence Overmire
“Life is much more than the evanescent present. We should do all we can to preserve our antiquities, lest we forget who we are.”
― Laurence Overmire, The Ghost of Rabbie Burns: An American Poet's Journey Through Scotland

Greg Chivers
“You've always told me buyers of antiquities are fools duped into unrequited love affairs with the past.' I have to admit, that does sound like me.”
― Greg Chivers, The Crying Machine
