Quote of the Day | 0817
I read for the pleasure of the sentence structure, or the use of language, or the control of metaphor, or for a sense of humor. Or the civilizing voice that is not particularly surprised or shocked by the world’s wickedness. If I come across a writer who’s obsessed with himself, I’m not usually interested.
I know I’m not like a lot of your other Media Diets. I do read for the fun of it, thank God.
Lewis Lapham, ‘What I Read’
From the Media Diet series.
