Excerpt from The Building Laws of Human Character, or Every Man’s Monitor
Honor is like the eye, which cannot suffer the least impurity without damage; it is a precious stone, the price of which is lessened by the least fiaw. - Bossuet.
Talents are nurtured best in solitude, but character on life’s tempestuous sea. - Goethe.
