  1. A quotation from Horace

    Good Homer sometimes nods, which gives me a jerk β€”
    But sleep may well worm its way into any long work!

    indignor, quandoque bonus dormitat Homerus;
    verum operi longo fas est obrepere somnum.]

    Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
