إن الانسان لا يمكن ان يكون شريفًا داخل محيط من الفساد و الفسق، الشرف لايمكن أن يكون فردياً بأى حال من الاحوال،حتى لو تحلى به الانسان و اعتنقه، فالشرف كما يبدو لي الان؛ لا يتحقق بالاختيار فقط ولا بالممارسة فحسب و الا فأنا شريك بالصمت في هذه الجريمة. ↗

I am not, in the ordinary acceptation of the term, a good-natured man; that is, many things annoy me besides what interferes with my own ease and interest. I hate a lie; a piece of injustice wounds me to the quick, though nothing but the report of it reach me. Therefore I have made many enemies and few friends; for the public know nothing of well-wishers, and keep a wary eye on those who would reform them. ↗

— William Hazlitt
