Thanks Christine... your pointer moved me in the right direction...
I found what I wanted:
"Our classic, the classic of all Europe, is Virgil."
From "What is a Classic?," Eliot's Presidential Address to the
Virgil Society in 1944...
I am a retired teacher of languages. Taught Latin in an earlier
incarnation, last time a quarter-century ago. Trying to reuscitate
my Latin now. In the past quater-century I taught Spanish,
German, English and French in various parts of the world.
Thanks.
