I saw this while preparing for next weeks lesson and decided it had to go on the old blog of mine -
The Devil's Dictionary by Ambrose Bierce, published in 1911, gives the following definition:
Wit n. The salt with which the American humorist spoils his intellectual cookery by leaving it out.
Sorry fellow teachers, you know i'm only teasing!
