    The world loses a lot when someone with enormous culture and good taste leaves. It's as if we said goodbye to the Renaissance and fell into limbo. Men like this don't make wars, they build Civilization.

    • @ShaunVillafana
      @ShaunVillafana 12 днів тому

      Then let us climb up from out of limbo holding intact the Renaissance he had built within us. In this way, he is still here. So then having taste and culture is an adopted child, a responsibility that would die without such civility to nurture it.
