Oh sleep, the certain knot of peace, the baiting-place of wit, the balm of woe, the poor man's wealth, the prisoner's release, the indifferent judge between the high and low  (Wit Quotes) I definitely did look up to John. We all looked up to John. He was older and he was very much the leader; he was the quickest wit and the smartest  (Wit Quotes) A fool who has a flash of wit creates astonishment and scandal, like hack horses setting out to gallop  (Wit Quotes) There is hardly that person to be found who is not more concerned for the reputation of wit and sense, than honesty and virtue  (Wit Quotes) The seat of wit, when one speaks as a man of the town and the world, is the playhouse  (Wit Quotes) Wit loses its respect with the good when seen in company with malice; and to smile at the jest which plants a thorn in another’s breast is to become a principal in the mischief  (Wit Quotes) It is of no use to possess a lively wit if it is not of the right proportion: The perfection of a clock is not to go fast, but to be accurate  (Wit Quotes) It is no great advantage to possess a quick wit, if it is not correct; the perfection is not speed, but uniformity  (Wit Quotes) Experience is the common schoolhouse of fools and ill men. Men of wit and honesty be otherwise instructed  (Wit Quotes) Wit as an instrument of revenge is as infamous as art is as a means of sensual titillation  (Wit Quotes) Wit is the appearance, the external flash of imagination. Thus its divinity, and the witty character of mysticism  (Wit Quotes) There is one single fact that one may oppose to all the wit and argument of infidelity; namely, that no man ever repented of being a Christian on his deathbed  (Wit Quotes) Have you not a moist eye, a dry hand, a yellow cheek, a white beard, a decreasing leg, an increasing belly? Is not your voice broken, your wind short, your chin double, your wit single, and every part about you blasted with antiquity?  (Wit Quotes) I think puns are not just the lowest form of wit, but the lowest form of human behavior  (Wit Quotes) No man is the wiser for his learning; it may administer matter to work in, or objects to work upon; but wit and wisdom are born with a man  (Wit Quotes) Roosevelt’s humor was broad, his manner friendly. Of wit there was little; of philosophy, none. What did he possess? Intuition, inspiration, love of adventure  (Wit Quotes) The first ingredient in conversation is truth, the next good sense, the third good humor, and the fourth wit  (Wit Quotes) The world is divided into men who have wit and no religion and men who have religion and no wit  (Wit Quotes) There are just certain things that turn my head. It may be a girl’s sense of humor, it may be her wit, or her belief system; it could be a lot of different things  (Wit Quotes) Wit is a weapon. Jokes are a masculine way of inflicting superiority. But humor is the pursuit of a gentle grin, usually in solitude  (Wit Quotes) Because if you’ve got the wit, you can make anything into a melody, ultimately  (Wit Quotes) Ideal conversation must be an exchange of thought, and not, as many of those who worry most about their shortcomings believe, an eloquent exhibition of wit or oratory  (Wit Quotes) There is no such whetstone, to sharpen a good wit and encourage a will to learning, as is praise  (Wit Quotes) It is always the same: women bedeck themselves with jewels and furs, and men with wit and quotations  (Wit Quotes) Generally speaking, there is more wit than talent in the world. Society swarms with witty people who lack talent  (Wit Quotes) Wit penetrates; humor envelops. Wit is a function of verbal intelligence; humor is imagination operating on good nature  (Wit Quotes) Those who are born of parents broken with old age, or of such as are not yet ripe or are too young, or of drunkards, soft or effeminate men, want a great and liberal ingenuity or wit  (Wit Quotes) I envy no quality of the mind or intellect in others; not genius, power, wit, nor fancy; but, if I could choose what would be most delightful, and, I believe, most useful to me, I should prefer a firm religious belief to every other blessing  (Wit Quotes)
