I have two rules. One is, never trust a man who smokes a pipe. The other is, never trust a man with shiny shoes.
Will covers a multitude of flaws, just as love covers a multitude of sins.
The reason I trust so much is that I don't feel like I have anything to hide. If somebody betrays that trust, it could never be so bad, because I don't keep any secrets.
Plato says a multitude can never philosophize and hence can never recognize the seriousness of philosophy or who really philosophizes. Attempting to influence the multitude results in forced prostitution.
If the multitude is possessed of the balance of real estate, the multitude will have the balance of power, and in that case the multitude will take care of the liberty, virtue, and interest of the multitude in all acts of government.
Perfection, in the form of a flawless stream of words delivered with cool composure, is never as persuasive as realness. An impassioned but imperfect speech, which shows you care too much to hide flaws, is far more compelling.
A lot of girls think they have flaws that really aren't flaws. I've never met a girl who was just so secure about everything.
I say never trust a man who combs his hair so as to cover his shiny dome and then flaunts a wife young enough to be his daughter. Oh, Trump has issues all right.
I put my flaws on front street. So the world accepted my flaws, so I don't have any flaws.
We're socially constructed to hide our flaws, and that breeds pain for a lot of people.
Any kind of run-of-the-mill flaws that are easily solved, to me, are boring. Situational flaws, for example. I like flaws that are rooted in a deep distrust in people because of a lack of love.
It's just a compulsion to create something new and stay busy. I don't know how to do anything else. It was never exactly right. Those records came out in spite of their flaws. And because of their flaws they were good.
My height does help me. I can hide a multitude of sins in my height.
A company shouldn't get addicted to being shiny, because shiny doesn't last.
Sunglasses always hide a multitude of sins. Sunglasses and a great pair of heels can turn most outfits around.
I was really in to shiny things when I was younger and I stole a shiny tag for my dog. I didn't get caught. I hope I don't go to jail for that.
