Will Lewis
William Lewis or Willie Lewis may refer to:...
kings men long
Every man is a king so long as he has someone to look down on.
lectures looks audience
When audiences come to see us authors lecture, it is largely in the hope that we'll be funnier to look at than to read.
facts
NOW is a fact that cannot be dodged.
struggle book reading
Fortune has dealt with me rather too well. I have known little struggle, not much poverty, many generosities. Now and then I have, for my books or myself, been somewhat warmly denounced -- there was one good pastor in California who upon reading my Elmer Gantry desired to lead a mob and lynch me, while another holy man in the state of Maine wondered if there was no respectable and righteous way of putting me in jail.
white excuse priests
Indians, of course, have no "theology," and indeed no word for the system of credulity in which the white priests arrange for God, who must be entirely bewildered by it, a series of excuses for his failures.
two sense-of-humor insult
There are two insults which no human being will endure: The assertion that he hasn't a sense of humor, and the doubly impertinent assertion that he has never known trouble.
mind details thoroughness
She did her work with the thoroughness of a mind which reveres details and never quite understands them.
race perfect trying
Since dictating the Bible, and hiring a perfect race of ministers to explain it, God has never done much but creep around and try to catch us disobeying it.
fog gossip cynical
Unhappy women are given to protecting their sensitiveness by cynical gossip, by whining, by high-church and new-thought religions, or by a fog of vagueness.
facts degrees compliment
There is no greater compliment to the Jews than the fact that the degree of their unpopularity is always the scientific measure of the cruelty and silliness of the regime under which they live.
conversation
There was much conversation, most of which sounded like the rest of it.
mind might satan
It might be the doing of Satan, in whom Aaron anxiously believed with all of his being except, perhaps, his mind.
ignorance achievement intellectual
Except for half a dozen in each town the citizens are proud of that achievement of ignorance which is so easy to come by. To be 'intellectual' or 'artistic' or, in their own word, to be 'highbrow,' is to be priggish and of dubious virtue.
have-faith reverence
I have faith in Faith, I have reverence for all true Reverence.
