I am often doubted when I say that the Irish peasantry still believe in fairies. People think I am merely trying to bring back a little of the old dead beautiful world of romance into this century of great engines and spinning-jinnies. Surely the hum of wheels and clatter of printing presses to let alone the lecturers with their black coats and tumblers of water have driven away the goblin kingdom and made.
William Butler Yeats
