their poets". Who is the Poet? My problem here is that I can't remember exactly what the quote was. It had the form "Where blank is concerned blank blanky blank" or I think the first blank may be intellect or virtue. I am also pretty sure that the quote is made in the letter where Screwtape talks about the war and how cowardice is a bad thing because if the patient recognizes it he will realize that he is weak and will ask for repentance.

When I read the quote I instantly recognized it but couldn't for the life of me remember which poet was responsible for saying it. The only thing I knew for sure was that Dante most certainly wasn't the one who said it.
