I haven't got as much money as some folks but I've got as much impudence as any of them and that's the next thing to money.
I am prejudiced in favor of him who without impudence can ask boldly. He has faith in humanity and faith in himself. No one who is not accustomed to giving grandly can ask nobly and with boldness.
Modern education has devoted itself to the teaching of impudence and then we complain that we can no longer control our mobs.
Certainly the best works and of greatest merit for the public have proceeded from the unmarried or childless men.
