    “Today’s comedian has a cross to bear that he built himself. A comedian of the older generation did an “act” and he told the audience, “This is my act.” Today’s comic is not doing an act. The audience assumes he’s telling the truth. What is truth today may be a damn lie next week.”
    —Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)

    “The army is the true nobility of our country.”
    —Napoleon Bonaparte III (1808–1873)
