“Most of the handbooks on country living are written
by flabby men at the Waldorf-Astoria, who lie in bed and dictate them to
secretaries. The greatest naturalist I know lives in a penthouse overlooking Central
Park. He hasn't raised his window shades in twenty
years.”—Humorist/screenwriter S.J. Perelman (1904-1979), Acres and Pains (1947)
