“Do we wish to join that procession, or don’t we? On what terms shall we join the procession? And above all, where is it leading us, the procession of educated men?.... What are these professions and why should we make money out of them? Where in short is it leading us, the procession of the sons of educated men?” Virginia Woolf, Three Guineas 1938/1966 pp.62-3
