Why I Love My Job

Knowing things, learning things, is meat and drink to me.

There are things I know because I have experienced them.

There are things I know because I have been taught them, by teachers present or absent, living or dead.

And there are things I know because I have discovered them.

I can stroll about in my own house and learn things that, as far as I know, no one else has ever known.

And there is nothing - nothing! - like the pleasure that gives me.
