H. L. Mencken Quotes:

Ocupation: Journalist

Life: September 12, 1880 - January 29, 1956

Birthday: September 12

Death: January 29

Life may not be exactly pleasant, but it is at least not dull. Heave yourself into Hell today, and you may miss, tomorrow or next day, another Scopes trial, or another War to End War, or perchance a rich and buxom widow with all her first husband's clothes. There are always more Hardings hatching. I advocate hanging on as long as possible.

- H. L. Mencken
