    “It requires a surgical operation to get a joke well into a Scotch understanding. The only idea of wit, or rather that inferior variety of the electric talent which prevails occasionally in the North, and which, under the name of “Wut,” is so infinitely distressing to people of good taste, is laughing immoderately at stated intervals.”
    —Sydney Smith (1771–1845)

    “If pimps and thieves everywhere were always punished, honest people would all believe themselves always to be innocent.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)
