"One should fight like the devil the temptation to think well of editors. They are all, without exception--at least some of the time--incompetent or crazy. By the nature of their profession, they read too much, with the result that they grow jaded and cannot recognize talent though it dances in front of their eyes."--John Gardner

No doubt.
After years in publishing, I learned how isolated editors are. The ones I knew were very rigid in their opinions. Only THEY had the answers.
