It can be absurd sprichwort

 It can be absurd, cantankerous, self-destructive and pompous, but it is never crass

 I despair of the Republic! Such dreariness, such whining sallow women, such utter absence of the amenities, such crass food, crass manners, crass landscape!! What a horror it is for a whole nation to be developing without the sense of beauty, and eating bananas for breakfast.
  Edith Wharton

 Higgins is pompous, a braggart, egocentric. He makes a clear statement at the beginning that he stands alone, he's independent, he doesn't need anybody. What he doesn't count on is how attached he is going to be to her (Doolittle). That's what appeals to the audience — seeing this guy who is a pompous ass really humiliate himself.

 There is peace more destructive of the manhood of living man than war is destructive of his material body.
  Douglas William Jerrold

 I think it's absurd to make any such suggestion that our men and women in uniform deliberately targeted innocent civilians. That's just absurd.

 It's been terrible. ... The charges were absurd then, they remain absurd now.

 people are funny because they're absurd in situations where they don't know they're absurd.

 We love peace, but not peace at any price. There is a peace more destructive of the manhood of living man, than war is destructive to his body. Chains are worse than bayonets.
  Douglas Jerrold

 The mystic purchases a moment of exhilaration with a lifetime of confusion; and the confusion is infectious and destructive. It is confusing and destructive to try and explain anything in terms of anything else, poetry in terms of psychology.
  Basil Bunting

 It's more than just hurling an expletive, which after a while becomes crass.

 It's kind of crass, ... I'd rather not say it, unless Your Honor gives me permission.

 but - and I don't want to be crass here - isn't a hurricane an act of God? Shouldn't we have a day of shunning?
  Jon Stewart
