    “You know lots of criticism is written by characters who are very academic and think it is a sign you are worthless if you make jokes or kid or even clown.

    “Some, for renown, on scraps of learning dote,
    And think they grow immortal as they quote.”

    “Him, the vindictive rod of angry justice
    Sent, quick and howling, to the centre headlong;
    I, fed with judgements,in a fleshy tomb, am
    Buried above ground.”
    —William Cowper (1731–1800)
