“The rich were dull and they drank too much or they played too much backgammon. They were dull and they were repetitious.

—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

“Humor does not include sarcasm, invalid irony, sardonicism, innuendo, or any other form of cruelty. When these things are raised to a high point they can become wit, but unlike the French and the English, we have not been much good at wit since the days of Benjamin Franklin.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
