“The fetish of the great university, of expensive colleges for young women, is too often simply a fetish. It is not based on a genuine desire for learning. Education today need not be sought at any great distance. It is largely compounded of two things, of a certain snobbishness on the part of parents, and of escape from home on the part of youth. And to those who must earn quickly it is often sheer waste of time. Very few colleges prepare their students for any special work.” NeedsTwoHomeTodayYoungDesireCertainParentSpecialYouthStudentsCollegeWasteDistanceUniversityGenuineTwo ThingsExpensiveWasting TimeSheerYoung WomenAcademiaFetishSnobbishnessEducation Today Author:Mary Roberts Rinehart

“It turns out - this is a metaphor out of [Charles] Dickens - that the raw sewage emptied into the Anacostia comes from the Federal Triangle. I have a sewer map, and on it you can see the pipe from which congressional wastes empty into the river that then flows through the black neighborhoods of Washington, D.C. It is very expensive to do anything about the river, but somebody's working on it.” TurnsBlackWasteFlowRiversEmptyMetaphorExpensiveNeighborhoodMapsPipeDickensTrianglesSewersSewage Author:Robert Hass

“Comics are expensive. Don’t make me resent the money I spend buying yours.
