Iain Pears Quotes
Manlius ... Took Care In His Invitations, Actively Sought To Exclude From His Circle Crude And Vulgar Men Like Caius Valerius. But They Were All Around; It Was Manlius Who Lived In A Dream World, And His Bubble Of Civility Was Becoming Smaller And Smaller. Caius Valerius, Powerful Member Of A Powerful Family, Had Never Even Heard Of Plato. A Hundred, Even Fifty Years Before, Such An Absurdity Would Have Been Inconceivable. Now It Was Surprising If Such A Man Did Know Anything Of Philosophy, And Even If It Was Explained, He Would Not Wish To Understand.
