    In the domain of art there is no light without heat.

    How came this to pass?
    He heard the good pastor
    Cry, ‘All flesh is grass.’
    —Unknown. On a Clergyman’s Horse Biting Him (l. 1–4)

    Christians would show sense if they dispatched these argumentative Scotists and pigheaded Ockhamists and undefeated Albertists along with the whole regiment of Sophists to fight the Turks and Saracens instead of sending those armies of dull-witted soldiers with whom they’ve long been carrying on war with no result.
    Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
