The Antoninos

 "Even if the good old days never existed, the fact that we can conceive of such a world is, in fact, an affirmation of the human spirit. That the imagination of man is capable of creating the myth of a more open, more generous time is not a sign of our folly.

Every country has its 'Merrie England,' a season of innocence, a dew-bright morning of the world."

Orson Welles
