Ugly and futile; proving, as Nikkimaria shows, that as often, Wagner had it right well ahead of his time. Why, I ponder, should anyone waste their time scattering this sort of dung across assorted article talk-pages, when they could be doing something constructive?

"In deepest humility I dedicate herewith" to your majesties of this article my humble offering, "I make bold to add this most humble request": may your majesties "deign to dignify the present modest labor with a gracious acceptance", --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:47, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Quite a few years off the mark there - to what Bach says, Wagner replies "this fast-growing tendency to chain men to machine and deprive them of all joy in their efforts--the plan will lead to cheap men and cheap products.
