Interesting take on mathematics requirements

[Barry MacKichan]

… in an ideal world, people would learn this material over many years,
after having background courses in commutative algebra, algebraic
topology, differential geometry, complex analysis, homological algebra,
number theory, and French literature.

Barry--

That sounds about right, which slowed me down a bit in that pursuit.  Where does the quote come from?  Also, I V. DOLGACHEV, recently wrote a book to explain classical algebraic geometry to current experts, who evidently have difficult with the old stuff.
