“No man tastes pleasures truly, who does not earn them by previous business; and few people do business well, who do nothing else.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“He is as antisocial as a flea. Clearly, such people are undesirable, and a society in which they can flourish has something wrong with it.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“All you of Earth are idiots!... First was your firecracker, a harmless explosive. Then your hand grenade. They begin to kill your own people a few at a time. Then the bomb. Then a larger bomb, many people are killed at one time. Then your scientists stumbled upon the atom bomb—split the atom. Then the hydrogen bomb, where you actually explode the air itself.”
—Edward D. Wood, Jr. (1922–1978)
