Famous Quotes & Sayings

Charles Caleb Colton

Nothing more completely baffles one who is full of trick and duplicity than straigthforward and simple integrity in another. A knave would rather quarrel with a brother knave than with a fool, but he would rather avoid a quarrel with one honest man than with both.

It will bear me over as it has for them.
