""The sullen obstinacy with which they [jews] maintained their peculiar rites and unsocial manners seemed to mark them out a distinct species of men, who boldly professed, or who faintly disguised, their implacable hatred to the rest of human kind."

-Edward Gibbons, The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, vol. 1, 1776
