Derision Quotes

My writing has always been met with derision or dismissal Picture Quote #1
Vanity is the natural weakness of an ambitious man, which exposes him to the secret scorn and derision of those he converses with, and ruins the character he is so industrious to advance by it Picture Quote #1
The pushback I get is, ‘He’s a hedge fund guy.’ Full stop. Some places, that can be a badge of honor. In others, it’s almost a term of derision Picture Quote #1
The moment you declare a set of ideas to be immune from criticism, satire, derision, or contempt, freedom of thought becomes impossible Picture Quote #1
Here’s an irony of the history of conservatism’s relationship with business and business’s relationship with conservatism: ‘Wall Street’ used to be the right-wing industrialists of the forties and fifties’ greatest term of derision. (Wall Street was the place that humiliated them by forcing them, hat in hand, to beg for capital) Picture Quote #1
Humor and laughter - not necessarily derogatory derision - are my pet tools. This may come from my general philosophy of never taking the world too seriously - for fear of dying of boredom Picture Quote #1

It’s interesting - I think superheroes get much more unfair derision. There are so many good superhero books being done. Science fiction is almost more reputable, I guess, at least a step up from poor superheroes Picture Quote #1

Nor shall derision prove powerful against those who listen to humanity or those who follow in the footsteps of divinity, for they shall live forever. Forever Picture Quote #1
Shame can kill the imagination. It’s hard to keep writing in the face of cultural derision Picture Quote #1
The derision comes from snobbery, which I think is the worst thing for art and music. I don’t think there’s any place for it and it comes from insecurity Picture Quote #1

Sayings designed to raise a laugh are generally untrue and never complimentary. Laughter is never far removed from derision Picture Quote #1
Promising to bring home a feed of fish is the absolute kiss of death to any chances of catching anything but a large heap of derision when you get home Picture Quote #1
Conformities are called for much more eagerly today than yesterday... skeptics, liberals, individuals with a taste for private life and their own inner standards of behavior, are objects of fear and derision and targets of persecution for either side... in the great ideological wars of our time Picture Quote #1
The great ideals of liberty and equality are preserved against the assaults of opportunism, the expediency of the passing hour, the erosion of small encroachments, the scorn and derision of those who have no patience with general principles Picture Quote #1
Time turns the old days to derision, our loves into corpses or wives; and marriage and death and division make barren our lives Picture Quote #1
