D. H. Lawrence 
Fantasia of the Unconscious 

I am not a proper archaeologist nor an anthropologist nor an ethnologist. I am no ‘scholar’ of any sort. But I am very grateful to scholars for their sound work. I have found hints, suggestions for what I say here in all kinds of scholarly books, from the Yoga and Plato and St. John the Evangel and the early Greek philosophers like Herakleitos down to Fraser and his ‘Golden Bough, ‘ and even Freud and Frobenius. Even then I only remember hints–and I proceed by intuition. This leaves you quite free to dismiss the whole wordy mass of revolting nonsense, without a qualm.
