More From Judith Martin

... if we take the universe of 'fitting,' countless coats 'fit' backs, and countless boots 'fit' feet, on which they are not practically fitted; countless stones 'fit' gaps in walls into which no one seeks to fit them actually. in the same way countless opinions 'fit' realities, and countless truths are valid, tho no thinker ever thinks them.

I went to meet joe johnston, the director, and he's charming. i've been very lucky. most of the directors i've worked with are charming. but joe's a particularly charming man, and he showed me lots of designs and, rather memorably, welcomed me to the marvel universe.

The more people participate in the process of their own education, and the more people participate in defining what kind of production to produce, and for what and why, the more people participate in the development of their selves. the more people become themselves, the better the democracy.

I could tell hugo was convinced that he would get to walk back up these stairs: after all, he was a civilized person. these were all civilized people. hugo really couldn't imagine that anything irreparable could happen to him, because he was a middle-class white american with a college education, as were all the people on the stairs with us. i had no such conviction. i was not a wholly civilized person.

College is like a woman: you work so hard to get in, and nine months later you wish you'd never come. we used to say if a frog had side pockets, he'd carry a handgun.
