"It is not the antiquity of a tale that is any evidence of its truth; on the contrary, it is a symptom of its being fabulous; for the more ancient any history pretends to be, the more it has the resemblance of a fable."

H.P. Lovecraft

Sinclair Lewis

And since I love him so much, again:
When facism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.
Sinclair Lewis

To speak ill of others is a dishonest way of praising ourselves; let us be above such transparent egotism...If you can't say good and encouraging things, say nothing. Nothing is often a good thing to say, and always a clever thing to say.
William J. Durant
