Quotes By Person: Anne Fadiman

“Sara grew up to be a copy editor, a profession she compares to walking behind an elephant in a parade and scooping up what it has left on the road. Her prize find, to date, was a sentence in a manuscript for a San Francisco publisher: 'Einstein's Theory of Relativity led to the development of the Big Band Theory.' In her mind's ear, she still occasionally hears the strains of the cosmic orchestra.”

-Ex Libris, Anne Fadiman
