"Absolutely. I’m in love with ancient philosophers, foreign painters, classic authors, and musicians who have died long ago. I’m a passionate lover. I fawn over these people. I have given them my heart and my soul."

and the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,

and their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still!
