They speak to us, consult with us, and join with us in a living and intense intimacy  (Plutarch Quotes) He who least likes courting favour, ought also least to think of resenting neglect; to feel wounded at being refused a distinction can only arise from an overweening appetite to have it  (Plutarch Quotes) Vultures are the most righteous of birds: they do not attack even the smallest living creature  (Plutarch Quotes) The process may seem strange and yet it is very true.
