Quote of the Day (Joe Queenan, on a Backpack Worn With Office Attire)

“A backpack worn with office attire makes you look like a little kid. It makes it look like you're carrying Intermediate Spanish or ‘The Scarlet Letter’ inside your book bag. It makes you look dumpy. It makes you look like a big goof. It makes you look like your mommy dressed you and said, ‘Look both ways before crossing the busy street, sweetie.’” —Joe Queenan, “Moving Targets: Please Don’t Leave Me Holding This Bag,” The Wall Street Journal, September 27, 2014
