Quote of the day from 'Huckleberry'




In yesterday's discussion
of Leo Strauss
, Huck took a pop at "armchair hoplites who cherrypick
Thucydides." What a great phrase! I hadn't heard it before, but as soon
as I saw it, it made sense to me.



I am guessing he is talking about Victor Davis
Hanson
but I don't know for sure.
