Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes.

The truth must dazzle gradually or every man be blind.

I have a brother and sister; my mother does not care for thought, and father, too busy with his briefs to notice what we do. He buys me many books, but begs me not to read them, because he fears they joggle the mind.

A man is literally what he thinks.

Man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides.

I do not like the man who squanders life for fame; give me the man who living makes a name.
