Menckenisms
"I hate all sports as rabidly as a person who likes sports hates common sense."
"If a politician found he had cannibals among his constituents, he would promise them missionaries for dinner."
"In this world of sin and sorrow there is always something to be thankful for; as for me, I rejoice that I am not a Republican."
"Most people are unable to write because they are unable to think, and they are unable to think because they congenitally lack the equipment to do so, just as they congenitally lack the equipment to fly over the moon."
Bravo. One bon-mot from Mencken worth a month of blog-belches and ewe-tube spam from the usual moron-o-crat, er, McMoron-o-crat.
