    “I feel free as a bird. I’m in a unique position because I’m the boss. I buy what I like. I initiate things. I can experiment with all kinds of things I think the kids might be interested in. Nobody interferes. For me, it’s no chore to go to work. Most people never get to do this at any time in their lives.”
    —Sarah Houghton, U.S. librarian. As quoted in Working, book 9, by Studs Terkel (1973)
