—Erma Bombeck (20th century)
“The notion that the public accepts or rejects anything in modern art ... is merely romantic fiction.... The game is completed and the trophies distributed long before the public knows what has happened.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
“Daily life is governed by an economic system in which the production and consumption of insults tends to balance out.”
