“This led to a discussion of whether volcanoes were really the fires from Vulcan’s forge or some sort of natural phenomenon, like storms and floods. I was of the latter opinion, because Vulcan is reputed to be the greatest of smiths and I doubt he would let his fires get out of control.”
― John Maddox Roberts, Under Vesuvius

― John Maddox Roberts, The King's Gambit
