"as soon as they (humans) turn away from the Gods, then the universe (pan-whole) treats them as irrational beings"
--Proclus "On Providence and Fate" ch. 25--
"Not unto everyone doth Apollo appear, but unto him that is good. Whoso hath seen Apollo, he is great; whoso hath not seen him, he is of low estate. We shall see thee, O Archer, and we shall never be lowly." Callimachus, Hymn to Apollo
