Quotations regarding 'Cynic'

Choose a letter: 
There is nothing so pitiful as a young cynic because he has gone from knowing nothing to believing nothing.
Maya Angelou, American Poet (1928-  )
I read some of my stories recently and thought, 'How in the hell did I get away with that?' I had some really raw cynicism in some of them.
Carl Barks, American Artist (1901-2000)
Remember, beneath every cynic there lies a romantic, and probably an injured one.
Glenn Beck, American Journalist (1964-  )
Cynicism is the humour of hatred.
Herbert Beerbohm, -
I'm very used to playing the tomboy or the sarcastic cynic. That's my go-to. Playing the vulnerable of a real girl that's in real womanlike situations, where it's romanticized, I'm a little nervous about it.
Kristen Bell, American Actress (1980-  )

Cynic, n: a blackguard whose faulty vision sees things as they are, not as they ought to be.

Jeff Bridges, American Actor (1949-  )

Ken Burns, American Director (1953-  )
If you're sick and tired of the politics of cynicism and polls and principles, come and join this campaign.

We can destroy ourselves by cynicism and disillusion, just as effectively as by bombs.

Cynicism is tough. A cynic's point of view is really pitiful. I derive pleasure out of a lot of things in life. As long as I'm fairly healthy, it's hard to stay dismal for very long.
Shawn Colvin, American Artist (1958-  )
Why should we strive, with cynic frown, to knock their fairy castles down?
Eliza Cook, English Poet (1818-1889)
Hypocrisy is the outside of cynicism.
Mason Cooley, American Writer
Cynicism is full of naive disappointments.
Mason Cooley, American Writer
I am not a cynic.
Kevin Costner, American Actor (1955-  )
Cynicism is intellectual treason.
Norman Cousins, American Editor (1915-  )
