I am a lover of fine literature; most notably the epic poems of Ancient Greece. I find that today's writers lack the rhetorical wit and emotional depth of the ancient writers of yore.
To wit, an uneducated buffoon of lower intellect today may say to you - Hey, what's up? Wanna smash?
Whereas a fine gentleman (such as myself) will quote the estimable Homer himself - There is the heat of Love, the pulsing rush of Longing, the lover’s whisper, irresistible—magic to make the sanest man go mad.
Now will you take my hand while I escort you to my subterranean abode?
