We Feign Pity When We Want To

Has A Woman Who Knew She Was Well-dressed Ever Caught A Cold?

Deception, Flattering, Lying, Deluding, Talking Behind The Back, Putting Up A False Front, Living In Borrowed Splendor, Wearing A Mask, Hiding Behind Convention, Playing A Role For Others And For Oneself -- In Short, A Continuous Fluttering Around The Solitary Flame Of Vanity -- Is So Much The Rule And The Law Among Men That There Is Almost Nothing Which Is Less Comprehensible Than How An Honest And Pure Drive For Truth Could Have Arisen Among Them.

Pity Is Extolled As The Virtue Of Prostitutes.

Worldly Wisdom Do Not Stay In The Field! Nor Climb Out Of Sight. The Best View Of The World Is From A Medium Height.

That For Which We Find Words Is Something Already Dead In Our Hearts.
