A cynic can chill and dishearten with a
single word. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
A cynic is not
merely one who reads bitter lessons from the past; he is the one who is
prematurely disappointed in the future. - Sydney
J. Harris
Beneath every
cynic there lies a romantic, and probably an injured one. - Glenn Beck
Cynicism is
intellectual dandyism. - George Meredith
It takes a clever man to turn
cynic and a wise man to be clever enough not to. - Fannie Hurst
The cynic is one who never sees a good
quality in a man, and never fails to see a bad one. He is the human owl,
vigilant in darkness and blind to light, mousing for vermin, and never seeing
noble game. The cynic puts all human actions into two classes - openly bad and
secretly bad. - Henry Ward Beecher
The
power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those
who have not got it. - George
Bernard Shaw
Watch what people are cynical
about, and one can often discover what they lack. - George Patton
