Can you be a misanthrope and still love or enjoy some individuals? How about a compassionate misanthrope?

– Hillary Rodham (Clinton), 1967 (via NYT)

I love this. I doubt she could win on the “compassionate misanthrope” ticket, but I might vote for her if she tried.

(I also like the quote from her correspondent, John Peavoy, who notes that writing letters to friends was what college students did before Facebook.”)
