Daily Dose

From The Professor and Other Writings, by Terry Castle

SO TELL ME

"So tell me, friends: why do storytellers use that phrase 'before I knew it'?  In my experience you only use that phrase when in fact you did know it.  It's like signing cordially at the end of a note: that's the word you employ when you hate the person's guts."
