And if you walk around looking like someone other than who you are, you could end up getting the wrong job, the wrong friends, who knows what-all. You could end up with somebody else's life."I shrugged again, and smiled. "This is my life," I said. "It doesn't seem like the wrong one. Michael Cunningham
The very names we use to describe ancient ideas or vanished forms of social organization would be quite meaningless if we had not known living men. Marc Bloch

I hate to lend a book I love…it never seems quite the same when it comes back to me… L. M. Montgomery
James Beard quote: "If I had to narrow my choice of meats down to one for the rest..."
If I had to narrow my choice of meats down to one for the rest of my life, I am quite certain that meat would be pork. James Beard
In the world of journalism, the personal Web site ("blog") was hailed as the killer of the traditional media. In fact it has become hailed as the killer of the traditional media. In fact it has become something quite different.
