Bonus Quote of the Day (Hannah More, on ‘Commending a Right Thing’)
“Commending a right thing is a cheap substitute for doing it, with
which we are too apt to satisfy ourselves."-- British writer-philanthropist Hannah More (1745-1833), Coelebs in Search of a Wife: Comprehending
Observations on Domestic Habits and Manners, Religion and Morals (1810)
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
