Joseph Addison
Image
Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Any discussion of the problems of being funny in America will not make sense unless we substitute the word wit for humor.

Khalil Gibran
Image
There's many a man hath more hair than wit.
William Shakespeare

Conservatism is affluent and openhanded, but there is a cunning juggle in riches. I observe that they take somewhat for everythingthey give. I look bigger, but am less I have more clothes, but am nit so warm more armor, but less courage more books, but less wit.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
