"You know, the people long ago were smarter. They no have technologies, like now, many peoples think people of history were stupid. Stupid, stupid, not maybe stupid, but...What's the word? My English is no good. But stupid, yes. Those people long ago make many great things, they make the pyramids, for example. They are really very smart."

And store of cares doth follow riches store.
The little that I haue, growes dayly more
Without my care, but onely to attend it;"
