""illustrious minds (like Me) were able to realize that the forces of nature are beyond their control, whilst base idiots (like my chambermaid, the dude i buy the milk from, every person currently existing in scotland and of course, Savages) still believed in magic"

Sophocles
“No yield to the dead! Never stab the fighter when he's down. Where's the glory, killing the dead twice over?”
Sophocles, Antigone

Xenophon
“When, lithe of limb, she danced the Pyrrhic, loud clapping followed; and the Paphlagonians asked, "If these women fought by their side in battle?" to which they answered, "To be sure, it was the women who routed the great King, and drove him out of camp." So ended the night.”
Xenophon, The Persian Expedition

Xenophon
“Thálatta! Thálatta!”
Xenophon, The Persian Expedition

Xenophon
“Separated from Hellas by more than a thousand miles, they had not even a guide to point the way.”
Xenophon, Anabasis

Jorge Luis Borges
“En un alba sin pájaros el mago vio cernirse contra los muros el incendio concéntrico. Por un instante, pensó refugiarse en las aguas, pero luego comprendió que la muerte venía a coronar su vejez, y a absolverlo de sus trabajos. Caminó contra los jirones de fuego. Estos no mordieron su carne, éstos lo acariciaron y lo inundaron sin calor y sin combustión. Con alivio, con humillación, con terror, comprendió que él también era una apariencia, que otro estaba soñándolo.”
Jorge Luis Borges, Ficciones
