"I grew convinc'd that Truth, Sincerity and Integrity in Dealings between Man and Man, were of the utmost Importance to the Felicity of Life." I live my life according this. I've regretted many mistakes along the way. I have never regretted telling the truth. I might withhold the truth. I might knowingly let people assume things, but that is their own fault. I will not lie. The problem after reading this in high school is that I became a lover of truth which I later learned is a philosopher.
- bluehat 9y agoSo much for Sincerity and Integrity in Dealings between Man and Man I guess :p
- taneq 9y agoTechnically I believe a philosopher is a lover of wisdom, rather than just truth. But I guess you could rightly argue that truth is a subset of wisdom... :)
- zappo2938 9y agoBecause I love something doesn't mean I'm good at it. A T.S. Eliot fan might appreciate this comment.
