These pages came from a small art book (the kind they sell at museums for 3 or 4 dollars) called Springs of Greek Wisdom. I got it for ten cents at a used bookstore that was going out of business. The pages were of faux parchment paper with quotes from Plutarch, Euripides, Homer, and others. I was surprised at how universal they are.

The book was published in 1968 by Herder Book Center, New York, and by the inscription inside purchased at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston a year later.
