Commend a FOOL for his WIT, or a rogue for his honesty and he will RECEIVE you into his FAVOR.

Utilising WIT in the THICK of BATTLE will be your KEY to VICTORY.

The liveliest effusions of wit and HUMOUR are SIMPLY what the READER of a novel has a right to expect.

The wit makes FUN of other PERSONS; the satirist makes fun of the world; the humorist makes fun of himself, but in so doing, he identifies himself with people - that is, people everywhere, not for the purpose of taking them apart, but simply revealing their TRUE nature.

Who WOULD not GIVE up WIT for POWER and BEAUTY?
