Gratitude Is Merely The Secret

Perfect Courage Is To Do Without Witnesses What One Would Be Capable Of Doing With The World Looking On.

Strength And Weakness Of Mind Are Misnomers; They Are Really Nothing But The Good Or Bad Health Of Our Bodily Organs.

We Had Better Appear What We Are, Than Affect To Appear What We Are Not.

Humility Is Often Only The Putting On Of A Submissiveness By Which Men Hope To Bring Other People To Submit To Them; It Is A Morecalculated Sort Of Pride, Which Debases Itself With A Design Of Being Exalted; And Though This Vice Transform Itself Into A Thousand Several Shapes, Yet The Disguise Is Never More Effectual Nor More Capable Of Deceiving The World Than When Concealed Under A Form Of Humility.

Οur Own Distrust Somewhat Justifies The Deceit Of Others.
