Samuel Johnson
“The world cannot reward those qualities which are concealed from it”
Samuel Johnson

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
“We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.”
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

“Moral norms may differ cross-culturally not primarily because of histories of cultural transmission, but because different environments present varied cooperation problems that require different moral rules to solve”
Harvey Whitehouse, RITUAL ANIMAL:IMITATION & COHESION IN EVOLUTION SOCIAL COMPLEXITY

Samuel Johnson
“He that has collected his knowledge in solitude must learn its application by mixing with mankind.”
Samuel Johnson

Samuel Johnson
“It has always been the practice of mankind to judge of actions by the event. The same attempts, conducted in the same manner, but terminated by different success, produce different judgments: they who attain their wishes never want celebrators of their wisdom and their virtue; and they that miscarry are quickly discovered to have been defective not only in mental but in moral qualities. [...] he that fails in his endeavours after wealth or power will not long retain either honesty or courage.”
Samuel Johnson
