Ralph judges books by their covers. Like all English
teachers, he is concerned only with appearance --
not the goodness or rottenness underneath. Ralph picks
people whose ideas he dislikes but cannot rebut logically
and rationally, and who also seem to make more than the
usual share of careless mistakes in English. Being unable
to judge an idea, he can only go by commas in the wrong
place. He grades English mechanically without understanding
a word of what is said. He is nothing but a Fool.

Dick Jones

"There is no surer way to misread any document than to
 read it literally. As nearly as we can, we must put
 ourselves in the place of those who uttered the words,
 and try to divine how they would have dealt with the
 unforeseen situation; and, evidence of what they would
 have done, they are by no means final."
  --Learned Hand, US Court of Appeals, 1924-1951
