“No crime is vulgar, but all vulgarity is crime”
Oscar Wilde
“Argument are to be avoided; they are always vulgar and often convincing.”
“There are no people who are quite so vulgar as the over-refined”
Mark Twain
“Vulgarized knowledge characteristically gives birth to a feeling that everything is understandable and explained. It is like a system of bridges built over chasms. One can travel boldly ahead over these bridges, ignoring the chasms. It is forbidden to look down into them; but that, alas, does not alter the fact that they exist.”
Czeslaw Milosz
“Manners require time, as nothing is more vulgar than haste”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“I hate vulgar realism in literature. The man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one. It is the only thing he is fit for.”
“It is very vulgar to talk about one's business. Only people like stockbrokers do that, and then merely at dinner parties.”
