more wisdom

19 Nov

So today, I’m just going to throw another quote from a smart person at you.

Because frankly – I’m tired. I was “on” all weekend, including several hours of software validation overnight. That’s not counting the variety shows, comicons, and regular life stuff like laundry and pet care.

Sometimes sleep deprivation leads to interesting thought places, but this instance isn’t one of those times.

I cribbed this quote from the comments of a thread over at Scalzi’s regarding feminism, which I can only assume was prompted, at least indirectly, by this excellent piece from Rachel Edidin, an Associate Editor over at Dark Horse comics.

So…your promised wisdom, from the pen of author Rebecca West, who also said many other clever things that you should read:

I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat, or a prostitute.

    I work with a lot of ex-navy guys. I need this quote on my door so some of them will kindly check the attitude before entering.
