| |  | | | | | | | | | | | The first and worst of all frauds is to cheat one's self. All sin is easy after that. | | Pearl Bailey | | | | | The world is an old woman, and mistakes any gilt farthing for a gold coin; whereby being often cheated, she will thenceforth trust nothing but the common copper | | Thomas Carlyle | | | There are very honest people who do not think that they have had a bargain unless they have cheated a merchant | | Anatole France | | | Three things are men most likely to be cheated in, a horse, a wig, and a wife | | Benjamin Franklin | | | To cheat oneself out of love is the most terrible deception; it is an eternal loss for which there is no reparation, either in time or in eternity | | Søren Kierkegaard | | | | | When I consider life, 'tis all a cheat. Yet, fooled by hope, men favour the deceit; trust on, and think to-morrow will repay: to-morrow's falser than the former day. | | John Dryden | | | | | | | |
