“வரம்பிலா அறிவுத் திறனும் புல்லறிவும் ஒன்றே. மடையனாக விரும்பாத அறிஞன் தானாகவே தனது அறிவுப் பரப்புக்கு ஒரு வேலி அமைத்துக்கொள்ள வேண்டும். அதற்கு ஏதோ ஒரு பெயர். திருவள்ளுவனுக்கு அறநெறி; மணிவாசகனுக்குப் பக்திநெறி; தாயுமானவனுக்குத் தவநெறி. நம்மைப் போன்ற நடப்பு மனிதர்களுக்குச் சான்றோர் வகுத்து வைத்திருக்கும் நன்னெறி.”

“In many ways, the work of a critic is easy,” Ego says. “We risk very little yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends.”

Reid’s favorite quotes is from the great Jewish sage Hillel: “If I am not for myself, who is? And when I am for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?” One interpretation of the quote is that you must love yourself and yet you ought not to live just for your benefit. You should help others, too. Reject choosing between self-love and love of others: do both.
