• I drink to make other people seem more interesting.

• Great art is as irrational as great music. It is mad with its own loveliness.

• Politics is the pursuit of trivial men who, when they succeed at it, become important in the eyes of more trivial men.

• Bad officials are elected by good citizens who do not vote.

• Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.
