My latest brochure from Kenyon College, one of the many schools to which I am applying. I didn’t even know John went there, so imagine my surprise when I saw this familiar quote. Out of context, as always.
You can’t escape it, John.
If I ever become a published author please never attribute something my characters say directly to me okay? Okay.
It’s really funny to me that the college from which I graduated would use this quotation, since A. I disagree with it, and B. even the character in the novel they are quoting eventually disagrees with it, and most importantly C. the place I learned that there is a point to life other than seeking remarkableness was Kenyon College.
