"Latin and Greek are not dead languages. They have merely ceased to be mortal."
J.W. Mackail
“When you read stuff in Latin and Greek, it’s a way of [sic] foundation in language. I’ve always been quite grateful… if there’s a word I don’t understand, it usually comes from a Latin or Greek root, so I sort of know what it means.”
Tom Hiddleston
"J.K. Rowling studied French... but her chosen minor would pay off big-time. As a Classics student, Rowling’s coursework later helped flesh out Harry Potter’s magical world, for at Hogwarts, the tongue of ancient Rome is alive and well."
Mark Mancini (read the article here)
"I came to the Greeks early, and I found answers in them. Greece's great men let all their acts turn on the immortality of the soul. We don't really act as if we believed in the soul's immortality and that's why we are where we are today."
Edith Hamilton
