Ignorance Can Be Cured, But Stupidity Is

No Man Is Really Honest; None Of Us Is Above The Influence Of Gain.

Why, I'd Like Nothing Better Than To Achieve Some Bold Adventure, Worthy Of Our Trip.

If I Get Clear Of My Debts, I Care Not Though Men Call Me Bold, Glib Of Tongue, Audacious, Impudent, Shameless, A Fabricator Of Falsehoods, Inventor Of Words, Practised In Lawsuits, A Pettifogger, A Rattle, A Fox, A Sharper, A Knave, A Dissembler, A Slippery Fellow, An Imposter, A Rogue That Deserves The Cat-o-nine-tails, A Blackguard, A Twister, A Licker-up Of Hashes; They Call All This When They Meet Me, If They Please, I Care Not.

If You Strike Upon A Thought That Baffles You, Break Off From That Entanglement And Try Another, So Shall Your Wits Be Fresh To Start Again.

A Demagogue Must Be Neither An Educated Nor An Honest Man; He Has To Be An Ignoramus And A Rogue.
