Never lose that honesty, Bobby - always be honest with yourself, know your own motives for what they are, good or bad, make your own decisions firmly and justly - and you will be a fine, strong character, of some real use in this muddled world of ours!

  4. Margaret Atwood _ The Blind Assassin

    We do like to have such good opinions of our own motives when we're about to do something harmful, to someone else.
