When it wants a library catalogued, or the solar system discovered, or any trifle of that kind, it uses up its specialists.

—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“A serious problem in America is the gap between academe and the mass media, which is our culture. Professors of humanities, with all their leftist fantasies, have little direct knowledge of American life and no impact whatever on public policy.”
