I confess to not having read anything remotely considered a classic in decades. It would probably do my old soul some good to read fiction from an era when humans were still humans instead of automatons with the latest version of "received wisdom" being uttered as profundity. It would be a respite from all that is going on in this world, though I fear remembrance of "simpler" times might be painful.

Flannery O'Connor, I think, comes as close as any modern literature writer does to the classics. That is indeed an exceeding excellent quote (to borrow from the KJV, THE classic literature).
