"The other day a dog peed on..." - Quote by H L Mencken

“Legend: A lie that has attained the dignity of age.”

“Moral certainty is always a sign of cultural inferiority. The more uncivilized the man, the surer he is that he knows precisely what is right and what is wrong.”

“In human history a moral victory is always a disaster, for it debauches and degrades both the victor and the vanquished.”

“I bought an ant farm. I don't know where I am going to get a tractor that small!”

“I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time.”

“Oh, I'm a dangerous criminal, I am,' said the dwarf cheerfully.”

“Oh,Sara. It is like a story." "It is a story...everything is a story. You are a story-I am a story. Miss Minchin is a story.”

“There is more to life than increasing its speed.”

“Your life expands in proportion to your courage. Fear limits a leader.”
