Just goes to show, old Samuel B. Sternwheeler was way ahead of his time with some very explosive ideas, like "The definition of a Highbrow is someone who can hear the William Tell Overture and not think of the Lone Ranger. Made perfect sense. This very line of reasoning has since been extended to define a low brow is someone who can hear Bartok's Music for Strings Percussion and Celesta and not think of Claudia Cassidy (a Chicago Tribune music Critic remembered 4 silly rants vs the piece)
I learned after making the post that he was a caricature of Mark Twain. The one line I remember most: "The definition of a high brow is someone who can listen to the William Tell overture and not think of the Lone Ranger."
Does anyone know who played the part of the old Southern Gentleman in the elaborate civil war era formal attire? He always had these "wise sayings" like "The definition of a highbrow is someone who can hear the William Tell Overture and not think of the Lone Ranger."
