From Word for the Wise at m-w.com. The story today is about H. L. Mencken, a newspaperman and leading authority on American English in the 1880's. The article says that, "Mencken defined . . . immorality as 'the morality of those who are having a better time.'" He also defined love as "the triumph of imagination over intelligence."

I think I might like this guy.
