Quote of the day

Actually, more like the quote of the month.

From H.L. Mencken:

We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart.

I first read that line in college and transcribed it to a 3x5 note card. It went into a box where I kept great words of wisdom. Every day, I put a new quote card up on my dorm room door, there for the world to see. Maybe that was an early form of blogging.

Hat tip to the Ace of Spades HQ.
