proud and privileged. :)

As promised earlier. i've made the effort to search for the quote i mentioned to a friend. couldn't say that i've ever been happier.

"Misquotation is, in fact, the pride and privilege of the learned. A widely- read man never quotes accurately, for the rather obvious reason that he has read too widely. "

- Hesketh Pearson, Common Misquotations (1934), Introduction
