"How beautifully Plato put it. Whenever you want to talk about people, it's best to take a bird's eye view and see everything at once - of gatherings, armies, farms, weddings and divorces, births and deaths, noisy courtrooms or silent spaces, every foreign people, holidays, memorials, markets - all blended together and arranged into a pairing of opposites."
~ Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 7.48
