“[I have] a very special reverence, almost an unreasoning awe, of signs and intimations given in odd ways in unexpected fashions, in places and surroundings which are generally accounted unreverend enough… I try to reverence the signs, omens, messages that are delivered in queer ways and queer places…” – Arthur Machen, The London Adventure; or, The Art of Wandering (1924)
