Quote of the Day (Henry James, on Who Once Sustained the 1 Percent)
"Young men of this class never do anything for
themselves that they can get other people to do for them, and it is the
infatuation, the devotion, the superstition of others that keeps them going.
These others in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred are women." —Henry
James, Washington Square (1880)
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
