Helena

Quotes

There was a further pause; then in clear, schoolroom tone, Helena said: 'What I should like to know is: When and where did all this happen? And how do you know?'
Minervina frowned. Marcias replied: 'These things are beyond time and space. Their truth is integral to their proposition and by nature transcends material proof.'
'Then, please, how do you know?'
'By a lifetime of patient and humble study, your Majesty.'
'But study of what?'
'That, I fear, would take a lifetime to particularize.'
