The banalities of a great man pass for wit.
The well of true wit is truth itself.
Humor is the truth wit is an exaggeration of the truth.
Analysis is soul of thought and ghost of wit.
The monuments of wit survive the monuments of power.
One can have a wit, but not a witless
My wit is only as stupid as the audience.
It's just cool to witness talent.
The Phoenix rises in the absence or need of witness.
I did not speak. I have found in any Q&A, in court, in witness interviews, wherever, often the best thing you can do is wait, say nothing. The witness will want to fill the awkward silence. He will feel a vague compassion to keep talking, to prove he is not holding back, to prove he is smart and in the know, to earn your trust.
