“I dont believe any more in democracy. But I cant believe in the old sort of aristocracy, either, nor can I wish it back, splendid as it was. What I believe in is the old Homeric aristocracy, when the grandeur was inside a man, and he lived in a simple wooden house.”

In curve and voice and eye

Of durancethat is I;
The eternal thing in man,
That heeds no call to die.”
