Shall I faint, now that I have poured out the spirit of my mind to the world, and treated many subjects with truth, with freedom, with power, because I have been followed with one cry of abuse ever since for not being a Government tool? ~ William Hazlitt
Porup Satire quotes by William Hazlitt
There is yet another kind of matrimonial dialect (which naturally succeeds this of talking at each other), which may very properlybe styled The Language Contradictory ... In the former, however plain the object of satire may be exhibited to the whole company, yet there always remains some little covering ... But in this last method, the defiance becomes more open and the impetuosity with which these contradictions are uttered (although the subjects of them are often of the most indifferent nature) evidently prove that they arise from passion. ~ Sarah Fielding
Porup Satire quotes by Sarah Fielding
I was trying to have an insight, and all I could think of was that I'd backed myself into a corner, and the corner was me. ~ John Welter
Porup Satire quotes by John Welter
And if an increasingly pluralistic America ever decides to commission a new motto, I'm open for business, because I've got a better one than E pluribus unum. Tu dormis, tu perdis ... You snooze, you lose. ~ Paul Beatty
Porup Satire quotes by Paul Beatty
Our time was most delightfully spent, in mutual Protestations of Freindship, and in vows of unalterable Love, in which we were secure from being interrupted, by intruding and disagreeable Visistors, as Augustus and Sophia had on their first Entrance in the Neighbourhood, taken due care to inform the surrounding Families, that as their happiness centered wholly in themselves, they wished for no other society. ~ Jane Austen
Porup Satire quotes by Jane Austen
On the other side of St John's house is a fake egg timer who can't maintain an erection. He shares the property with a glossy beef burger called Tom, who has been painted by a seven year old magistrate in order to be entered for this year's Miss East Lancashire competition. Next door to them is a Dundee cake with a lisp. ~ St John Morris
Porup Satire quotes by St John Morris
Dowist: (n.) blind believer in the stock market. ~ Sol Luckman
Porup Satire quotes by Sol Luckman
I can fly around the world in one night. I can wink and go up a chimney in a split second. I can be in 500 shopping malls on the same weekend. I can even fit enough gifts for the entire world into one tiny sleigh pulled by eight tiny reindeer, but I CANNOT FIX THIS CONFOUNDED COMPUTER! ~ Bobbi A. Chukran
Porup Satire quotes by Bobbi A. Chukran
Marcia was silent a moment. Then a sort of softer gleam came into her angry eye.

"Tell me some more about her," she said.

Adele clapped her hands.

"Ah, that's splendid," she said. "You're beginning to feel kinder. What we would do without our Lucia I can't imagine. I don't know what there would be to talk about."

"She's ridiculous!" said Marcia relapsing a little.

"No, you mustn't feel that," said Adele. "You mustn't laugh at her ever. You must just richly enjoy her."

"She's a snob!" said Marcia, as if this was a tremendous discovery.

"So am I: so are you: so are we all," said Adele. "We all run after distinguished people like--like Alf and Marcelle. The difference between you and Lucia is entirely in her favour, for you pretend you're not a snob, and she is perfectly frank and open about it. Besides, what is a duchess like you for except to give pleasure to snobs? That's your work in the world, darling; that's why you were sent here. Don't shirk it, or when you're old you will suffer agonies of remorse. And you're a snob too. You liked having seven--or was it seventy?--Royals at your dance."

"Well, tell me some more about Lucia," said Marcia, rather struck by this ingenious presentation of the case.

"Indeed I will: I long for your conversion to Luciaphilism. Now to-day there are going to be marvellous happenings... ~ E.F. Benson
Porup Satire quotes by E.F. Benson
As much as I think about sex, I can only with extreme difficulty conceive of myself actually performing the act. And here's another thing I wonder about. How could you ever look a girl in the eye after you've had your winkie up her wendell? I mean, doesn't that render normal social conversation impossible? Apparently not. ~ C.D. Payne
Porup Satire quotes by C.D. Payne
Satire is not a social dynamite. But it is a social indicator: it shows that new men are knocking at the door. ~ Jacob Bronowski
Porup Satire quotes by Jacob Bronowski
I want to blow your mind away, Pakistan. With love Yours destructively, TTP ~ @SaroorIjaz
Porup Satire quotes by @SaroorIjaz
Oh, you're hardly one to talk. Look where ogling a man got you. ~ Kathy Bryson
Porup Satire quotes by Kathy Bryson
The Victrola, the Movies, a lecture: such are the three American alternatives to Silence, Scandal and Squabble.
Or else, get drunk. America knows no other devices to enable its inhabitants to endure either their own company or that of their fellow-creatures. ~ Aleister Crowley
Porup Satire quotes by Aleister Crowley
That's not a religion, that's Pokemon. ~ Stephen Colbert
Porup Satire quotes by Stephen Colbert
The end of the human race will be that it will eventually die of civilization. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Porup Satire quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
He has a very nice face and style, really," said Mrs. Kenwigs.
"He certainly has," added Miss Petowker. "There's something in his appearance quite
dear, dear, what's the word again?"
"What word?" inquired Mr. Lillyvick.
"Why
dear me, how stupid I am!" replied Miss Petowker, hesitating. "What do you call it when lords break off doorknockers, and beat policemen, and play at coaches with other people's money, and all that sort of thing?"
"Aristocratic?" suggested the collector.
"Ah! Aristocratic," replied Miss Petowker; "something very aristocratic about him, isn't there?"
The gentlemen held their peace, and smiled at each other, as who should say, "Well! there's no accounting for tastes;" but the ladies resolved unanimously that Nicholas had an aristocratic air, and nobody caring to dispute the position, it was established triumphantly. ~ Charles Dickens
Porup Satire quotes by Charles Dickens
You piss off a bard, and forget about putting a curse on you, he might put a satire on you. ~ Alan Moore
Porup Satire quotes by Alan Moore
He was too smitten by his second wife and the sons she produced easily and regularly at eighteen-month intervals to bother too much about a daughter. ~ Anita Nair
Porup Satire quotes by Anita Nair
There are two kinds of humor. One kind that makes us chuckle about our foibles and our shared humanity
like what Garrison Keillor does. The other kind holds people up to public contempt and ridicule
that's what I do. Satire is traditionally the weapon of the powerless against the powerful. I only aim at the powerful. When satire is aimed at the powerless, it is not only cruel
it's vulgar. ~ Molly Ivins
Porup Satire quotes by Molly Ivins
There was a picture of the family over the mantelpiece, removed thither from the front room after Mrs. Osborne's death - George was on a pony, the elder sister holding him up a bunch of flowers; the younger led by her mother's hand; all with red cheeks and large red mouths, simpering on each other in the approved family-portrait manner. The mother lay underground now, long since forgotten - the sisters and brother had a hundred different interests of their own, and, familiar still, were utterly estranged from each other. Some few score of years afterwards, when all the parties represented are grown old, what bitter satire there is in those flaunting childish family-portraits, with their farce of sentiment and smiling lies, and innocence so self-conscious and self-satisfied. Osborne's ~ William Makepeace Thackeray
Porup Satire quotes by William Makepeace Thackeray
Hobos' (a slang term that combines the words 'hope' and 'bowl of beans given to me for free by a woman who then initiated intercourse') ~ Patton Oswalt
Porup Satire quotes by Patton Oswalt
- Why did blondes vote for Clinton?
- They didn't know how to read and thought she can make their life hilarious! ~ Bryanna Reid
Porup Satire quotes by Bryanna Reid
When was the last time you heard a long passage from a novel read aloud during Sunday school or worship? Or how about the last time a youth pastor subverted his or her "talk" through satire or parable rather than proof texting the six main points? Yet ~ Sarah Arthur
Porup Satire quotes by Sarah Arthur
I cry all the time when I watch 'Glee' because I don't know if it's satire or melodrama and that makes me feel like the writing is aware of itself, and that makes it OK to cry. ~ David Sedaris
Porup Satire quotes by David Sedaris
An honest politician is an oxymoron. ~ Mark Twain
Porup Satire quotes by Mark Twain
Of all debts, men are least willing to pay their taxes; what a satire this is on government. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Porup Satire quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
In the worst of circumstances, the hypocrite who pretends to be good does less harm than the public sinner. ~ Miguel De Cervantes Saavedra
Porup Satire quotes by Miguel De Cervantes Saavedra
During the Cold War of the 1950s, American spies were issued eyeglasses with thick, clunky frames. If captured, they were trained to casually chew the curved earpieces, where fatal doses of cyanide were cast inside the plastic. It's these same horn-rimmed suicide glasses, the wrangler says, that inspired the look of Buddy Holly and Elvis Costello. All those young hipsters wearing death on their nose. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Porup Satire quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
A good joke doesn't necessarily need appreciation from others. One can freely laugh at one's own deserving jokes. ~ Pawan Mishra
Porup Satire quotes by Pawan Mishra
... he'd assumed their relationship would go on forever. It was going on now, but in another way, like the rearrangement of the stars, which were all still in the sky, just burning in unexpected places. ~ Graham Spaid
