Actual quote with reference to "obscenity", from legal opinion issued by U.S. 
Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart, I believe, in a leading case on the 
issue of what limits could legally be imposed on publishers.  Variant of "I 
don't know anything about art, but I know what I like", generally attributed 
to someone in Peoria.
