“Obvious enough that generalities work to protect the mind from the great outdoors; is it possible that this was in fact their first purpose?”
—Howard Nemerov (1920–1991)
“Man cannot bury his meanings so deep in his book, but time and like-minded men will find them. Plato had a secret doctrine, had he? What secret can he conceal from the eyes of Bacon? of Montaigne? of Kant? Therefore, Aristotle said of his works, “They are published and not published.””
