“Cynicism is a sorry kind of wisdom.”
“Sorry to be so cynical, but this is New York”
“Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don’t learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us.”
“Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit.”
“There are two kinds of sorry. There is the sorry imbued with regret. And a pure sorry. The kind that is merely asking for forgiveness, nothing more.”
“Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom.”
