“Unfortunately for the betterment of mankind it is not always the fair-minded who are in the right.”
“It is unfortunate to have views different from the rest of mankind. It secures abuse.”
“Always do what is right. It will gratify half of mankind and astound the other.”
“For there is in mankind an unfortunate propensity to make themselves, their views and their works, the measure of excellence in every thing whatsoever”
“My dear friend, to be both powerful and fair has always been difficult for mankind. Power and justice have always been seen like day and night; this being the case, when one of them is there the other disappears.”
“It seems that there is nothing more frustrating than good humor and fair play for the embittered ideologue who is willing to distort the truth in the name of his mission to serve mankind.”
