“Behind this, almost certainly, there lies a circle of the Titanic sort - self-dubbed Knights Templars perpetually in arms to defend a critical Baphomet.

“nothing is less like a Friendship than a love-affair. Lovers are always talking to one another about their love; Friends hardly ever about their Friendship.
