"I've always been curious about this since the 80's. I've always liked his comics, especially Doctor Strange with Frank Brunner." — Nov 18, 2025 12:32PM

"I'm trying not to completely read every footnote. Wish me luck. Emma is basically crazy in the beginning, and the narration reflects her viewpoint. More and more unique characters are being introduced, interacting with each other. How did Austen write this without a computer? And paper was expensive. If only her sister Cassandra didn't burn thousands of Jane Austen's letters." — Nov 12, 2025 07:08AM

“And what are you reading, Miss?"
"Oh!" it is only a novel!" replies the young lady, while she lays down her book with affected indifference, or momentary shame. in short, only some work in which the greatest powers of the mind are displayed, in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest delineation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humour, are conveyed to the world in the best-chosen language.”
― Northanger Abbey

“The word "radical," incidentally, originally referred to the juice in fruits and vegetables, the moisture provided through the root (radix in Latin). It later came to mean the essence or substance of things. Radical does not mean "far out," but, rather, "far in.”
