"Such is the nature of men, that howsoever they may acknowledge many others to be
more witty, or more eloquent, or more
learned; yet they will hardly believe there
be many so wise as themselves."

A Quote for Tuesday
Here's another little bit of insight from the mind of Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679), the eminent English philosopher:
"Such is the nature of men, that howsoever
they may acknowledge many others to be
more witty, or more eloquent, or more
learned; yet they will hardly believe there
be many so wise as themselves."
"Such is the nature of men, that howsoever they may acknowledge many others to be
more witty, or more eloquent, or more
learned; yet they will hardly believe there
be many so wise as themselves."
