A fine and beautiful life lies before thee, because thou hast a lively mind and a good wit. Thine arms are very strong and sturdy. Swimming hath helped to make them so, but only because thou hast had the will to do it. Fret not, my son. None of us is perfect. It is better to have crooked legs than a crooked spirit.

People often misjudge this (Wit Quotes)

Amazingly, much of the best cartoon work was done early on in the medium’s history. The early cartoonists, with no path before them, produced work of such sophistication, wit, and beauty that it increasingly seems to me that cartoon evolution is working backward. Comic strips are moving toward a primordial goo rather than away from it... Not only can comics be more than we’re getting today. but the comics already have been more than we’re getting today (Wit Quotes)

I don’t think people really truly understand the extent that I go to try not to use (Wit Quotes)
