An instagram picture: Treading in the footsteps of history. My bare foot on the main road through the Agora and up to the Acropolis. All the people who have trodden the same road–Socrates, Plato, Xenophon, Themistocles, St Paul, Alexander, Cyrus, Arimnestos of Plateia, and others too many to mention.
My heroes are Hakuin, Bankei, Rabelais, Montaigne and most Tang dynasty poets. And whoever invented beer. And motorcycles. And I like cats. Will that do?
