...clear. The A's go to people who wake us up, who talk to us, who are sparkling and different and bright. (The B's go to Radcliffe girls who memorize the text and quote it verbatim, in perfectly looped letters with circles over the i's.) Not, I remind you, necessarily to people who have locked themselves in Lamont for a week and seminared and outlined and underlined and typed their notes and argued out all of Leibniz's fallacies with their mothers. They often get A's too, but, as Mr. Carswell sagely observed, this takes too long...

Most of the morning imports were ordinary enough to revive memories of the quality of some of Manhattan's own morning press...
...must discredit this notion. We shall invite the faithful to forget the useless pomp and ceremony of the past and to accept evangelical simplicity. Indeed, death does remind us of our fundamental equality before God." The bourgeoisie did not want to be reminded, even though Feltin is allowing a transition period of compromise ostentation. Priests in rich parishes wondered how they were going to make up for the loss of revenue that they have got from fancy weddings and funerals...
