Correction to a John le Carré quote

[Valentín]

This quote https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1257... belongs to The Honourable Schoolboy, by John le Carré ISBN 9780743457910

Also, the correct quote is as follows:

“A desk is a dangerous place from which to watch the world.”

It's "watch" and not "view"

I'm a Librarian but I'm not allowed to edit this one. Thank you.

That quote is locked for editing. Please contact GR Support: https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...

I thought there was some sort of super-Librarian able to edit it. Thank you!

Some quotes can indeed only be corrected by Superlibrarians, but this one is locked by GR Support.

There are, but that quote may have been used for the app's "quote of the day" feature. Only staff can edit that.

ETA: Sorry I did not see that there was a reply when I typed this!

This is just a heads up: the Goodreads support dutifully corrected the quote and added the source:
