Thomas Bulfinch
Biography
Quotes
- For Mythology is the handmaid of literature and literature is one of the best allies of virtue and promoters of happiness.
- Without a knowledge of mythology much of the elegant literature of our own language cannot be understood and appreciated.
- If no other knowledge deserves to be called useful but that which helps to enlarge our possessions or to raise our station in society, then Mythology has no claim to the appellation.
