We are more concerned about our reputation with others than our conscience.
We are more concerned about our reputation than our conscience.
The greatest minds are capable of the greatest vices as well as of the greatest virtues.
It is easier to be wise for others than for ourselves.
The heart has its reasons which reason knows not.
The more we love our friends, the less we flatter them.
Hypocrisy is the tribute that vice pays to virtue.
The only thing that can be said about the truth is that it is often painful.
We are all more concerned about our reputation than our conscience.
