The only possible excuse for this book is that it is an answer to a challenge. Even a bad shot is dignified when he accepts a duel.

 
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
 

The Blockade Laws are about as rascally an invention as the old Corn Laws. Suppose Tom Sayers lived in a street, and on the opposite side lived a shopkeeper with whom he has been in the habit of dealing. Tom quarrels with his shopkeeper and forthwith sends him a challenge to fight, which is accepted. Tom, being a powerful man, sends word to each and every householder in the street that he is going to fight the shopkeeper, and that until he has finished fighting no person in the street must have any dealings with the shopkeeper. "We have nothing to do with your quarrel," say the inhabitants, "and you have no right to stop our dealings with the shopkeeper".

 
Richard Cobden
 

The person who has lived the most is not the one who has lived the longest, but the one with the richest experiences.

 
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
 

My wallpaper and I are fighting a duel to the death. One or the other of us has to go.

 
Oscar Wilde
 

When I accept another person's imperfections, I deprive myself of any opportunity to be right. Today, I should look out for people who might challenge or annoy me. They are wrong, and I am right. The more I attack others, the more important I will become.
