Here's a bit of trivia -- There is a small quote from Ayn Rand in the Picturesque Speech and Patter department. Here is the ENTIRE quote: "She was only a shell containing the opinions of her friends." (Describing a character from "The Fountainhead") After seeing this issue, she wrote the follwing to Reader's Digest:
"Dear Patter Editor: Thanks for quoting me in your "Picturesque Speech and Patter" department in your September issue. I am always glad to see myself in the Reader's Digest. I also read page 63; so don't you owe me five bucks, or is it twenty-five now?" (From "The Letters of Ayn Rand")
