Quote of the Day (Ralph Waldo Emerson, on Genius as “Our Own Rejected Thoughts”)
“In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty.”—Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Self-Reliance,” from Essays: First Series (1841)
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
