BONS MOTS: I’m an elitist. I like people smarter than I am.
From the inimitable Jessica Gottlieb, who puts it so succinctly this way:
I don’t want to see someone just like me. I’m an elitist. I want to be in a room with people smarter than myself, folks with more integrity and a better value system. I want to stretch myself and work harder to do more.
Jessica Gottlieb, from her post “Embracing Mediocrity“ about the recent BlogHer conference in Chicago .
I love this quotation but I disagree with it. Read her blog, meet her, chat with her. She ain’t average. But the sentiment, yeah, I agree with that, for sure.
