I have never read Latin for pleasure and should
now be hard put to compose a simple epitaph. But I do not regret my superficial
classical studies. I believe that the conventional defence of them is valid;
that only by them can a boy fully understand that a sentence is a logical
construction and that words have basic inalienable meanings, departure from
which is either conscious metaphor or inexcusable vulgarity. Those who have
not been so taught — most Americans and most women — unless they
are guided by some rare genius, betray their deprivation.
