"Robbing people of their actual history is the same as robbing them of part of themselves.

And through that door all kinds of mystical non-sense crept in and made place right alongside the good philosophical teachings of Jesus."

"You should read history and look at ostracism, persecution, martyrdom, and that kind of thing. They always happen to the best men, you know."
