1 " Hypocrisy a homage is true, That vice pays to virtue, Be man - himself so true, That no false does he brew. "
― Munindra Misra , Pt. Kanhaiya Lal Misra - My Father
2 " Happiness was the responsibility you dreaded, it required the kind of rational discipline you did not value yourself enough to assume - and the anxious staleness of your days is the monument to your evasion of the knowledge that there is no moral substitute for happiness, that there is no more despicable coward than the man who deserted the battle for his joy, fearing to assert his right to existence, lacking the courage and the loyalty to life of a bird or a flower reaching for the sun. Discard the protective rags of that vice which you called a virtue: humility - learn to value yourself, which means: to fight for your happiness - and when you learn that pride is the sum of all virtues, you will learn to live like a man. "
― Ayn Rand , Atlas Shrugged
