“In history the great moment is, when the savage is just ceasing to be a savage, with all his hairy Pelasgic strength directed on his opening sense of beauty;and you have Pericles and Phidias,and not yet passed over into the Corinthian civility.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Living en famille provides the strongest motives for rudeness combined with the maximum opportunity for displaying it.”
