Proverb of the Day: On Rudeness

Rudness is the weak man's imitation of strength. -- Eric Hoffer

Everytime I read Hoffer's quote, I feel a little guilty.  I doubt it can be absolutized (not sure how one would square this with the frequent biblical use of satire, taunt, mocking, etc.) but, in general, this strikes me as pretty accurate.
