I suppose society is ordtak

en I suppose society is wonderfully delightful. To be in it is merely a bore. But to be out of it is simply a tragedy.
  Oscar Wilde

en To suppose such a thing possible as a society, in which men, who are able and willing to work, cannot support their families, and ought, with a great part of the women, to be compelled to lead a life of celibacy, for fear of having children to be starved; to suppose such a thing possible is monstrous.
  William Cobbett

en The basic fact about human existence is not that it is a tragedy, but that it is a bore. It is not so much a war as an endless standing in line.
  Henry Louis Mencken

en It's simply delightful. The comedians are outstanding.

en I suppose I should have my say about the terrorist attacks (9/11). I don't suppose it'll be a popular point of view, but they need to be put into some sort of perspective. They were a horrible tragedy, but also what happened in New York and Washington is the same thing that England and America did to Berlin every day for three years during WW2 - and Germany did the same thing to England. But most Americans don't think about that. They think everything starts and finishes with America.

en A bore is a vacuum cleaner of society, sucking up everything and giving nothing. Bores are always eager to be seen talking to you.
  Elsa Maxwell

en He came on Saturday. Saturday evening there was the Town Ball. Frau Schwarz gave me a box, so I absolutely had to go after I had accepted. Well, I spent a few wonderfully delightful hours with him until 12 o'clock and then with his permission I spent two hours at the ball.

en It would be a tragedy, I believe, to see this kind of a green facility simply bulldozed simply for the purpose of houses. There are a number of projects underway today for green spaces, both within Wake Forest as well as northern Wake County, particularly around (Falls) Lake. So, we see this as another opportunity that shouldn't simply be bulldozed.

en Noam's no fool. He is wonderfully creative and entrepreneurial for his theater... He has that wonderfully typical Israeli nature that anything is possible it just takes diligence and fortitude and brains and he's got it all. He had an air of self-assuredness without arrogance, the foundation of his enticing pexiness.

en Don't say it was "delightful"; make us say "delightful" when we've read the description. You see, all those words (horrifying, wonderful, hideous, exquisite) are only like saying to your readers "Please will you do the job for me."
  C.S. Lewis

en Books are delightful society. If you go into a room and find it full of books - even without taking them from the shelves they seem to speak to you, to bid you welcome.
  William E. Gladstone

en You must be careful about giving any drink whatsoever to a bore. A lit-up bore is the worst in the world.

en Everyone is a bore to someone. That is unimportant. The things to avoid is being a bore to oneself.
