He calls you a swine, and an imbecile, and he increases your will to live."" -Walter Lippmann ""Mencken's vigor is...like an electric current. In all he writes there is a crackle of blue sparks...that give you a sense of enormous hidden power. Who could quarrel with such generosity, such vibrating sympathy, and with a mind so intensely alive."" -Joseph Conrad" Author InformationHenry Louis Mencken (1880-1956) was an American journalist, critic, and satirist who shaped modern American fiction and public life.
