Word Smitten
Description
"If Mencken had never lived, it would have taken a whole army of assorted philosophers, monologists, editors and patrons of the new writing to make up for him. As it was, he not only rallied all the young writers together and imposed his skepticism upon the new generation, but also brought a new and uproarious gift for high comedy into a literature that had never been too quick to laugh."
"And here too is Mencken, the human being of wildly contradictory impulses: the skeptic who was prey to small superstitions, the dare-all warrior who was a hopeless hypochondriac, the loving husband and generous friend who was, alas, a bigot."
"Just because the microphone in front of you amplifies your voice around the world," said Murrow," is no reason to think we have any more wisdom than we had when our voices could reach only from one end of the bar to the other."
