Quote

It is in our faults and failings, not in our virtues, that we touch each other, and find sympathy. It is in our follies that we are one.

Sometimes we may learn more from a man's errors, than from his virtues.

Our virtues are most frequently but vices disguised.

There is a yearning for people to return to elementary moral virtues, such as integrity and commitment. We distrust people who have no centering of values. We greatly respect businessmen, for example, if they display those virtues, even if we don't necessarily agree with the people.

Our virtues are often, in reality, no better than vices disguised.

It is always one's virtues and not one's vices that precipitate one into disaster.

Virtues are acquired through endeavor, which rests wholly upon yourself.

Not to be cheered by praise, not to be grieved by blame, but to know thoroughly ones own virtues or powers are the characteristics of an excellent man.
