We Give Others Praise Which We Ourselves

To Say Of Men That They Are Bad Is To Say They Are Worse Than We Think We Are, Or Worse Than The Ideal Man Whose Image We Have Built Up On The Basis Of A Certain Few.

Already At The Origin Of The Species Man Was Equal To What He Was Destined To Become.

The Ideal, Without Doubt, Varies, But Its Enemies, Alas, Are Always The Same.

Take Heed Of Critics Even When They Are Not Fair; Resist Them Even When They Are.

A Man Is Not Old As Long As He Is Seeking Something.
