Asa Don Brown

"He acted like a libertine of Europe with a genteel Southern propriety-and had all the morals of an emotionless psychopath. The two former masked the latter, like leaves covering a snare.

Asa Don Brown

"Deceit for personal gain is one of history's most recurring crimes. Man's first step towards change would be thinking, counter-arguing, re-thinking, twisting, straightening, perfecting, then believing every original idea he intends to make public before making it public. There is always an angle from which an absolute truth may appear askew just as there is always a personal emotion, or a personal agenda, which alienates the ultimate good of mankind."
