Random quote of the day:
“Can any book represent all of one culture? Need it? Should we suppress books that include Irish drunks, Italian gangsters, ghetto gangs, even if accurate, because they do not adequately represent the many who are abstemious, law-abiding, upwardly mobile?”
—Anna Quindlen, “Public and Private: Two World Views,â€
The New York Times, June 29, 1994
