Quote

18th, 19th, and 20th century literature often refers to older literature, and Through the Wonder of Teh Intarwebs, sometimes you find fun things.  To wit, this quote (hunted down after that reference to Sir Thomas Browne's "Quincunx" from that passage I quoted in the last post):

"Time hath spared the epitaph of Adrian's horse, confounded that of himself."
--Urn Burial

I adore the oddments of archeology and the capricious preservation of history - and that's just a damn good quote.
