Isaac Asimov Quote

To a thoughtful biographer, [Ebling Mis's house] was the symbolization of a retreat from a non-academic reality, a society columnist gushed silkily at its frightfully masculine atmosphere of careless disorder, a University Ph.D called it brusquely, bookish, but unorganized, a non-university friend said, good for a drink anytime and you can put your feet on the sofa, and a breezy newsweekly broadcast, that went in for color, spoke of the rooky, down-to-earth, no-nonsense living quarters of blaspheming, Leftish, balding Ebling Mis. To Bayta, who thought of no audience but herself at the moment, and who had the advantage of first-hand information, it was merely sloppy.
