Albert Brooks

Too much me is annoying under any circumstance, but too much me in an essay, however personal, would mar the art. My "character" in the essay is more like a perspective, an angle of vision, a complicating factor, a questioning presence.

I'm so proud of you! I gushed, a statement I've only recently come to realize can be a backhanded compliment, insinuating that the person you're proud of has had to overcome some character flaw to do whatevre they've done to make you proud, so what you're really saying is not that you're proud, but that you're suprised the person has made you proud.
