"Try your tongue, if you cannot use your mind. The people scorn you, laughing at your folly, For all men know, as you might easily find, That almighty God is up in heaven so high, And all these images, it's plain to the eyes, Are nothing, and give you nothing, and cannot try For more - worthless lumps of stone, where they lie" - The Second Nun's Tale (379), Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales (tr. Burton Raffel)
