FAUSTUS: I see there’s virtue in my heavenly words:
Who would not be proficient in this art?
How pliant is this Mephistophilis,
Full of obedience and humility!
Such is the force of magic and my spells:
No, Faustus, thou art conjuror laureat,
That canst command great Mephistophilis:
Quin regis Mephistophilis fratris imagine.Christopher "Kit" Marlowe (1564-1593) English dramatist and poet
The Tragicall History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, Act 1, sc. 3 (sc. 3), l. 270ff (1594; 1604 “A” text)More about this quote: wist.info/marlowe-christopher/…

In the #Red Corner, hailing from a tiny piece of the #WisconsinFist most people wouldn't want anything to do with, our Speaker of the House, Robin Vos!
As you may have guessed, folks, he doesn't see many #challengers
Good for him. He's worth #millions and he's mayor ( #StreetMayor ) of his own #private #universe
The #problem is, he maintains that same level of "Street Mayor" #smugness when overseeing the House for the entire State of Wisconsin!
#Forward march!

#DisgruntledSunday #Immigration #TrumpTheNotGreat #Sneering #Smugness #AP
This picture of The Idiot Trump in office exemplifies his unfitness for that office. I was stopped in my tracks by the disgusting sneer on his face as he stood by enlarged photos of the Southern border. This exposes the showman and unserious tv producer mentality still at play as he bats at VP Harris with the same unwarranted trademark smugness.
He cannot be allowed into the White House ever again.

@Editrix_Rachel Separated by a common language. One of my favourite quotes. Churchill? I, like you, enjoy the differences. But ultimately you’re always the newcomers to this language. #Smugness. #superiorexpression. 😂😘
