"It is the stain and disgrace of..." - Quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero

“The man who commands efficiently must have obeyed others in the past, and the man who obeys dutifully is worthy of someday being a commander.”

“Without your knowledge, the eyes and ears of many will see and watch you, as they have done already.”

“The thirst of desire is never filled, nor fully satisfied.”

“The mark of extraordinary merit is to see those most envious of it constrained to praise.”

“Surrounded by the flames of jealousy, the jealous one winds up, like the scorpion, turning the poisoned sting against himself.”

“You can't stand to see your neighbor getting rich. You know you're smarter than he is and he's doing these things and he's getting rich.”

“No justification of virtue will enable a man to be virtuous. Without the aid of trained emotions the intellect is powerless against the animal organism. I had sooner play cards against a man who was quite skeptical about ethics, but bred to believe that ‘a gentleman does not cheat’, than against an irreproachable moral philosopher who had been brought up among sharpers.”

“Human nature is disposed to do good.”

“The prudent man does himself good; the virtuous one does it to other men.”
