Commonplace Book

'...Our greatest passions can be traced to our meanest instincts, and the fine names we have invented for successful selfishness mean no more in reality than the base ones which we contemptuously bestow on the selfishness which fails...'

from Love and the Soul Hunters by John Oliver Hobbes (Chapter XXVII)
