You should rather suppose that those are involved in worthwhile duties who wish to have daily as their closest friends Zeno, Pythagoras, Democritus and all the other high priests of liberal studies, and Aristotle and Theophrastus.

They are at home to all mortals by night and by day.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Robert A. Heinlein
