Comping.2


MH: "You know Harvey Mansfield's advice about comps? Stop reading and take more long walks." [Gosh, I love second-generation Mansfield advice. This is another good goal--to be so wise that people go around repeating your advice to others.]

Emily: "But I already take a lot of walks."

MH: "You need to stop studying, pour some wine, and have discussions with your friends."

Emily: "But that's all I do, ever."

MH: "Then you're well prepared."

[good to know!]
