    “I talk with the authority of failure—Ernest with the authority of success. We could never sit across the same table again.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “Now narrow minds can develop as well through persecution as through benevolence; they can assure themselves of their power by tyrannizing cruelly or beneficently over others; they go the way their nature guides them. Add to this the guidance of interest, and you will have the key to most social riddles.”
    —Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
