Quote of the Day (James Joyce, on Secrets)
“Secrets, silent, stony sit in the dark palaces of
both our hearts: secrets weary of their tyranny: tyrants willing to be
dethroned.” —Irish novelist James Joyce (1882-1941), Ulysses(1922)
A short sentence, as far as Joyce was concerned—but
illustrative of the way he loved to play with words.
I'm a librarian (no, NOT a "cybrarian" or "information scientist" or any of the other trendy terms the profession has come up with), as well as a freelance writer/researcher; my political leanings are contrarian, much to the dismay of friends on the left and right, and so I will give anyone looking for my vote exactly what they deserve -- the back of my hand
