Lärdom
A fool despises good counsel, but a wise man takes it to heart.
Smicker är aldrig så behagligt som på vår blinda sida; beröm en dåre för hans klokhet eller en skurk för sin ärlighet, och de kommer att ta emot dig i sina armar.
Flattery is never so agreeable as to our blind side; commend a fool for his wit, or a knave for his honesty, and they will receive you into their bosoms

Proverb
The heart never grows better by age; I fear rather worse, always harder. A young liar will be an old one, and a young knave will only be a greater knave as he grows older.
Lord Chesterfield

You figure they cheat at the ballpark, they'll cheat on the golf course, they'll cheat in business, and anything else in life. Players may laugh about it and say it's funny, but right down in their heart, they don't think it's funny at all, and they have no respect for a person who cheats.
