H.L. Menken, Baltimore Sun 1880-1956
♦ Immortal Words from H.L. Mencken of the Baltimore Sun on humankind’s common enemy: persons with political ambition, governments “who know better”, and himself. Yes Virginia there is a Washington, D.C and a Salisbury, N.C. City Hall. There’s a lot more where that comes from. The land is dense with moral imbeciles ever ready to take office and lead the populace forward over joy-filled cliffs.
