    It’s not a slam at you when people are rude—it’s a slam at the people they’ve met before.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    The title wise is, for the most part, falsely applied. How can one be a wise man, if he does not know any better how to live than other men?—if he is only more cunning and intellectually subtle?
