I Believe That There Is No Test Of Greatness In Periods, Nations Or Men More Sure Than The Development, Among Them Or In Them, Of A Noble Grotesque, And No Test Of Comparative Smallness Or Limitation, Of One Kind Or Another, More Sure Than The Absence Of Grotesque Invention, Or Incapability Of Understanding It.

It Is Far Better To Give Work That Is Above A Person, Than To Educate The Person To Be Above Their Work.

Commerce Is The Agency By Which The Power Of Choice Is Obtained.
