 Ambrose Bierce - Free Online Library
Between the years 1887 and 1906 Bierce wrote his famous column The Prattler, which was a mixture of literary gossip, epigrams, and stories.
Bierce gathered his sardonic and cruel epigrams and aphorisms in The Cynic's Word Book (1906).
When he edited his twelve-volume Collected Works (1909-1912), however, he changed the title of this work to The Devil's Dictionary (1911).

Poetry writing and song writing are really very similar, and Lindsey has never really talked about how he writes, but we know Stevie writes stanzas of prose that later become songs.
As far as Sardonic World meaning so much to him, well that doesn't mean there aren't other things he has written that aren't equally as meaningful.
I want to hear some new stuff, or like I said before, there is enough of a back log that surely some older things could be updated and freshened and would really rock!

 -yourDictionary.com - Word of the Day
"Sardonic" implies a cynical derision expressed either verbally or facially.
Suggested Usage: Sardonic remarks often follow ambiguous statements: "Joe is an unusual wit,' said Fred.
'That's true,' Marge remarked sardonically," or fit ridiculous situations: "Murray's marriage proposal received nothing but a sardonic smile from Eloise." (Thanks to YDC friend Stephen Kennedy for suggesting this word.)

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Athanasius
Julian the Apostate, in the letter alluded to above sneers at the diminutiveness of his person -- mede aner, all anthropiokos euteles, he writes.) In addition to these qualities, he was conspicuous for two others to which even his enemies bore unwilling testimony.
He was endowed with a sense of humour that could be as mordant -- we had almost said as sardonic -- as it seems to have been spontaneous and unfailing; and his courage was of the sort that never falters, even in the most disheartening hour of defeat.
There is one other note in this highly gifted and many-sided personality to which everything else in his nature literally ministered, and which must be kept steadily in view, if we would possess the key to his character and writing and understand the extraordinary significance of his career in the history of the Christian Church.

In Music We Trust - Darkthrone: Sardonic Wrath
"Sardonic Wrath" is DARKTHRONE's ultimate nod to the primitive origins of fl metal.
The CD boasts all the evil fury and damnable dementia you would expect from any fl metal effort by Fenriz and Nocturno Culto, but it is executed with a careful ear to the origin of the species specifically bands like HELLHAMMER, BATHORY, BURZUM, and the godfather's of it all VENOM.

While the Tai xuan might be described as a synthesis of the various schools of early Chinese thought, the Fa yan elevates the Confucian school above all the others.
In aphorism after aphorism, the Fa yan praises Confucius and the classics as the standards, stresses the importance of learning, rites and music, the five virtues, the five relations, and filial responsibility, while at the same time offering sardonic remarks on Daoist, Legalist, and yinyang and wuxing thinkers and their doctrines.
On governing, the Fa yan can be seen as advancing a Reformist position.
