Life, the Universe, Creation, it does seem like a divine comedy.

That reminds me of Don Quijote De La Mancha

The way they wrote stuff is so much junk, there is nothing like plain actual English, I guess that in the very old times they didn't want most people to understand what they were saying, they wanted to keep stuff secret so only a very few people could understand.

It is kind of funny, because nowdays people write in actual plain English that most people can read, but even now not everybody can understand what they read about.
