~ The Book of Worldly Wisdom .~
Things are generally other than they seem, and ignorance that never
looks beneath the rind becomes disabused when you show the kernel.
Lies
always come first, dragging fools along by their irreparable vulgarity.
Truth always lags last, limping along on the arm of Time. The wise
therefore reserve for it the other half of that power which the common
mother has wisely given in duplicate.
Deceit is very superficial, and
the superficial therefore easily fall into it.
Prudence lives retired
within its recesses, visited only by sages and wise men.
