“If my body is a Temple, then The Greeks and Romans ransacked it years ago”
“The words of the Greeks are born on their lips, but those of the Romans in their hearts.”
“Instead of trying to fit an impossible ideal, I took a personal inventory of all my healthy body parts for which I am grateful: Straight Greek eyebrows. They start at the hairline at my temple and, left unchecked, will grow straight across my face and onto yours.”
“Could a body broken and blood spilled two thousand years ago restore my own damaged life?”
“Silly of me not to have realized it. One often finds Greek temples lurking in the woods of English estates. Sneaky things, temples.”
“Until the blood from my pen runs dry, I shall worship the Greek body, the Greek mind, and the Greek soul.Until my tears land upon Greek soil, I shall forever live in exile.”
