“You know better than I that in a Republic talent is always suspect. A man attains an elevated position only when his mediocrity prevents him from being a threat to others. And for this reason a democracy is never governed by the most competent, but rather by those whose insignificance will not jeopardize anyone else's self-esteem.”
“Froth at the top, dregs at bottom, but the middle excellent.”
“As a rule, the man who can do all things equally well is a very mediocre individual.”
