In an enslaved world, slaves are bragging about how many hours they have worked (Germany); in a free world, free men are bragging about how much time they spend doing useless things like philosophizing, making art, and sports (ancient Greece).

Reading Yeat's Irish plays leaves you with an eerie sense of uneasiness. They really would make for great folk horror indie movies. The Land of Heart's Desire, directed by Robert Eggers, when?
According to Socrates, the wise man knows that he knows nothing, and according to Jesus, the good knows that he is bad—the fall of man twice, but one original sin: ignorance—of the spirit and of the heart.
