"For it (read the conception of an idea) does not at all admit of exposition like other branches of knowledge; but as a result of continued application to the subject itself and communion therewith, it is brought to birth in the soul on a sudden, as light that is kindled by a leaping spark, and thereafter it nourishes itself."

Plato (427-347 B.C.), 7^th Epistle, 341.
