Cynical Quotations

I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him.

— Mark Twain

One would have thought litigation superior to dueling for the purpose of settling disputes – provided that one had not met a lawyer.

— William Ferraiolo
