De Gustibus Non Est Disputandum

 


I have this written in a notebook somewhere that I got from Philip K. Dick. One of his favorite quotes. My two years of high school Latin are a bit rusty. Wiki says - "a Latin maxim meaning "In matters of taste, there can be no disputes." Also - The phrase is commonly rendered in English as "There is no accounting for taste(s)." What I remember from P.K. Dick was something like "other people can have bad taste and I don't care."
