Those who have greatest cause for guilt and shame
Are quickest to besmirch a neighbour's name.
When there's a chance for libel, they never miss it;
When something can be made to seem illicit
They're off at once to spread the joyous news,
Adding to fact what fantasies they choose.
By talking up their neighbour's indiscretions
They seek to camouflage their own transgressions,
Hoping that other's innocent affairs
Will lend camouflage to theirs,
Or that their own black guilt will come to seem
Part of a gerenal shady color-sheme
"L'amour est un grand maître
"Il le faut avouer, l'amour est un grand maître
Ce qu'on ne sut jamais il nous enseigne à l'être ;
Et souvent de nos moeurs l'absolu changement
Devient, par ses leçons, l'ouvrage d'un moment ;
De la nature, en nous, il force les obstacles,
Et ses effets soudains ont de l'air des miracles ;
D'un avare à l'instant il fait un libéral,
Un vaillant d'un poltron, un civil d'un brutal ;
Il rend agile à tout l'âme la plus pesante,
Et donne de l'esprit à la plus innocente."
L'Ecole des femmes, III, 4 (v. 900-909)"
