Cynical observations about human nature
|
gptkbp:famous_quote
|
We are more concerned about our reputation with others than our conscience.
The greatest minds are capable of the greatest vices as well as of the greatest virtues.
The more we love our friends, the less we love ourselves.
It is easier to be wise for others than for ourselves.
We often forgive those who bore us, but we cannot forgive those whom we bore.
There is no remedy for love but to love more.
We are all more concerned about our reputation than our conscience.
The only thing that can be said about human nature is that it is always the same.
