>Dear Professor DeLong,
>My name is Lawrence Kaplan, and I'm a writer at the New Republic. I've
>been reading your stuff for some time and, as it happens, I came across a
>thread in which you paraphase a quotation that I've been attempting to
>track down for weeks--"You may not be interested in the dialectic, but the
>dialectic is interested in you." I say paraphrase, because you are the
>only source listed by google, which leads me to suspect that the actual
>quote is a bit more elaborate. Any clues about the source--was it
>Trotsky?--or the exact quote? I ask because I intend to use it in a
>forthcoming piece. Many thanks. Best, Lawrence Kaplan
