More on Hypocrisy
“I'd sooner live among people who don't cheat at cards than among people who are earnest about not cheating at cards.”
“If people can be educated to see the lowly side of their own natures, it may be hoped that they will also learn to understand and to love their fellow men better. A little less hypocrisy and a little more tolerance towards oneself can only have good results in respect for our neighbor; for we are all too prone to transfer to our fellows the injustice and violence we inflict upon our own natures.”
“You undergo too strict a paradox, Striving to make an ugly deed look fair.”
