Quote by Henry Mencken (1880-1956)

• Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.

• Religion is fundamentally opposed to everything I hold in veneration - courage, clear thinking, honesty, fairness, and, above all, love of the truth.

• All men are frauds. The only difference between them is that some admit it. I myself deny it.

• Imagine the Creator as a low comedian, and at once the world becomes explicable.

• The essence of a self-reliant and autonomous culture is an unshakeable egoism.

• Marriage is a wonderful institution, but who would want to live in an institution?
