It is inherent to the human condition to admire precisely what you do not understand. - Daniel Salamanca Urey

Every time we experience a misfortune or a setback, we need to find a culprit. We accuse the wind if there is no other.

Nothing is more ridiculous than a tyrant, whose fear is gradually losing itself.

The smallest evil that is inflicted on us seems to us a monstrous and horrible injustice. On the contrary, we are willing to consider the evils of others' light and to excuse and mitigate the injustices suffered by them.
