Everybody likes to quote Stein on Pound:
Met Ezra Pound. Didn't like him. Found him to be the village explainer. Very useful if you happen to be a village; if not, not.
Most everyone, when offering said quotation, seems to believe they thusly (or already) stand with Stein against village explainers.
Good comedy.
