"The student is half afraid to meet one of the great philosophers face to face. He feels himself inadequate and
thinks he will not understand him. But if he only knew, the great man, just because of his greatness, is much more
intelligible than his modern commentator. The simplest student will be able to understand, if not all, yet a very
great deal of what Plato said; but hardly anyone can understand some modern books on Platonism."
- C.S. Lewis, On the Reading of Old Books
