I have posted b4 a similar quote from the same 1890s....Colonel Robert Green Ingersoll on religion: " I am reminded about 2 traveling salesmen. The 1st has a dog, cuts off the tail, applies magic goo upon the bloody rump AND THE DOG GROWS A NEW TAIL. THE 2nd salesman is not going to lose a sale so he picks up the dead tail smears his miracle balm and grows a new dog !! These 2 salesmen were last seen arguing over custody of the new yapping dog.!!!"

i always liked his quote, to para: while it's true that most men of genius are insane, you forget that all sane men are idiots.. probably appeals to me cause i know for sure that i'm not sane.

London is still an insane place than has NOT APOLOGIZED TO THE GREAT ALAN TOURING, Vera Drake, Charles Bradlaugh, Fabians or Oscar Wilde but spends billions each year for royals, military madness like nuke submarines and the Church of England

Accurate! I still remember seeing one of his plays as a teenager and enjoying it immensely! So funny.

I saw one performed, which was very funny, during college ... "The Importance of Being Earnest."

@AnonySchmoose that's the one! Hilarious!
