If there isn't a bit of a philologist inside you, trying to get out, then
you probably are in the wrong profession. You can't make yourself love and
care about the proper use of language--it is something innate that those
without it will never really understand. (Your friends will make allowances
for your eccentricities. Others will simply shake their heads sadly.)
