Maya Angelou on the joys of being edited

I’ve had the same editor since 1967. Many times he has said to me over the years or asked me, Why would you use a semicolon instead of a colon? And many times over the years I have said to him things like: I will never speak to you again. Forever. Goodbye. That is it. Thank you very much. And I leave. Then I read the piece and I think of his suggestions. I send him a telegram that says, OK, so you’re right. So what? Don’t ever mention this to me again. If you do, I will never speak to you again

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: “Israel is doing great evil“ is not antisemitic. “Israel is pulling the levers on all the world’s evil” is both antisemitic and also passing the buck on how bad the US is, and our role now and historically.
