It Is Almost Always A Fault Of

Interest Blinds Some People, And Enlightens Others.

Humility Is Often A False Front We Employ To Gain Power Over Others.

In The Intercourse Of Life, We Please More By Our Faults Than By Our Good Qualities.

We Are More Often Treacherous Through Weakness Than Through Calculation.

We Love Everything On Our Own Account; We Even Follow Our Own Taste And Inclination When We Prefer Our Friends To Ourselves; And Yet It Is This Preference Alone That Constitutes True And Perfect Friendship.
