"We are like dwarfs standing on the shoulders of giants; thanks to them, we see farther than they. Busying ourselves with the treaties written by the ancients, we take their choice thoughts, buried by age and human neglect, and we raise them, as it were, from death to renewed life."
--Theology of the Reformers by Timothy George, quoting the medieval theologian Peter of Blois.
