There used to be a great site of Mencken quotes by John Webb but it seems to have disappeared.
This Mencken quote is eerily prophetic:
'As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.' Boru
‘I can’t be having with this.’ - Esmeralda Weatherwax
Along the same line.
Quote: The truth is . . . that the great artists of the world are never puritans, and seldom ever ordinarily respectable. No virtuous man - that is, virtuous in the YMCA sense - has ever painted a picture worth looking at, or written a symphony worth hearing, or a book worth reading, and it is highly improbable that the thing has ever been done by a virtuous woman. |
