From the Writer's Almanac:
Voltaire wrote, "God is a comedian, playing to an audience too afraid
to laugh."
And, "To succeed in the world it is not enough to be stupid, you must
also be well-mannered."
And, "Let us read and let us dance ... two amusements that will never
do any harm to the world."
And from a friend, "A gentleman is someone who knows how to play the
bagpipes, but chooses not to."
