Miles Harvey Quotes

What A Vapid Job Title Our Culture Gives To Those Honorable Laborers The Ancient Egyptians And Sumerians Variously Called Learned Men Of The Magic Library, Scribes Of The Double House Of Life, Mistresses Of The House Of Books, Or Ordainers Of The Universe. 'Librarian' - That Mouth-contorting, Graceless Grind Of A Word, That Dry Gulch In The Dictionary Between 'libido' And 'licentious' - It Practically Begs You To Envision A Stoop-shouldered Loser, Socks Mismatched, Eyes Locked In A Permanent Squint From Reading Too Much Microfiche. If It Were Up To Me, I Would Abolish The Word Entirely And Turn Back To The Lexicological Wisdom Of The Ancients, Who Saw Librarians Not As Feeble Sorters And Shelvers But As Heroic Guardians. In Assyrian, Babylonian, And Egyptian Cultures Alike, Those Who Toiled At The Shelves Were Often Bestowed With A Proud, Even Soldierly, Title: Keeper Of The Books. - P.113
