Talk:Jesting Pilate

Untitled
Neelix just changed this dab page to a redirect, using the edit summary "This phrase is not even mentioned on the Francis Bacon article, and the article about the book can easily be linked via hatnote on the article about the verse. This is the primary article." I have the Francis Bacon essays in front of me as I write. The essay "Of truth" begins"What is truth? said jesting Pilate, and would not stay for an answer." That is where the phrase comes from. Its use for the verse derives from the Bacon reference. Using a dab page is far more appropriate for someone who is looking for the Huxley book. It seems to me, therefore, preferable to leave it as it is, and I have reverted. SamuelTheGhost (talk) 23:33, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
