Judge - A law student who grades his own examination papers.
The lunatic fringe wags the underdog.
The great secret of happiness in love is to be glad the other fellow married her.
Bachelors have consciences. Married men have wives.
Christian - One who is willing to serve three Gods but draws the line at one wife.
If, after I depart this vale, you ever remember me and have thought to please my ghost, forgive some sinner and wink your eye at some homely girl.
- Collected in A Mencken Chrestomathy
I do not believe in democracy, but I am perfectly willing to admit it provides the only truly amusing form of government ever devised by man. - Preface, A Mencken Chrestomathy.
