"One woman told me last Christmas that she did not believe in Hell or ghosts. Hell was an invention got up by the priests to keep people good; and ghosts would not be permitted to go 'trapsin' about the earth' at their own free will; 'but there are fairies and little leprechauns, and water-horses, and fallen angels.' No matter what one doubts, one never doubts the fairies...."
-- William Butler Yeats
