Hugh Kingsmill

“Writers are idolized not because they love their fellow men, which is never a recommendation and in extreme instances leads to crucifixion, but because their self-love is in tune with current fears and desires, and in giving it expression they are speaking for an inarticulate multitude”. –Hugh Kingsmill

Hannibal

“God has given to man no sharper spur to victory than contempt for death”. –Hannibal

Babe Ruth

“It’s hard to beat a person who never gives up”. –Babe Ruth

Thomas Carlyle

“Democracy is, by the nature of it, a self-canceling business; and it gives in the long run a net result of zero”. –Thomas Carlyle

William F. Buckley

“Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views”. –William F. Buckley

Max Beerbohm

“I have known no man of genius who had not to pay, in some affliction or defect either physical or spiritual, for what the gods had given him”. –Max Beerbohm
