But more wonderful than the lore of old men and the lore of books is the secret lore of ocean.

Young men should prove theorems, old men should write books.

Ocean is more ancient than the mountains, and freighted with the memories and the dreams of Time.

This place had once been the seat of an evil older than mankind and wider than the known universe.

Children, old crones, peasants, and dogs ramble; cats and philosophers stick to their point.

Young men, hear an old man to whom old men hearkened when he was young.
