Quote of the Day (Dorothy L. Sayers, on Death and ‘The Anglo-Saxon Race’)
"Death seems to provide the minds of the
Anglo-Saxon race with a greater fund of amusement than any other single
subject." — Dorothy L. Sayers, creator of detective Lord Peter Wimsey, Introduction to The Third Omnibus of Crime
(1935), edited by Sayers
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
