Dr. John's Journal: Tuesday's Quote

Tuesday, June 8, 2010

Today's line come from the eminent French poet-philosopher Paul Valery (1871-1945):

"Our judgments judge us, and nothing reveals us,
exposes our weaknesses more ingeniously than the
attitude of pronouncing upon our fellows."

John Hajduk: Dillon, Montana; I am a history professor who grew up in Western New York, but now find myself teaching in Western Montana. My primary areas of interest and research are in American cultural history, especially in relation to the intersection of popular culture and politics. This blog is primarily to help me keep in touch with my far-flung family and friends, and give me the chance to spout off a bit on whatever happens to be on my mind.
