“Truth does less good in the world than its appearances do harm.”
“The world is full of warfare 'twixt the evil and the good;I watched the battle from afar as one who understoodThe shouting and confusion, the bloody, blundering fight-How few there are that see it clear, how few that wage it right!”
“Society does not love its unmaskers.”
