On Cunning
|
- In a
great
business there is
nothing so fatal as cunning management.—Junius.

leads to knavery; it
is but a step from one to the other, and that very slippery; lying only
makes the difference; add that to cunning, and it is knavery.—La
Bruyère.
- Cunning
is
the art of concealing
our own defects, and discovering other people's weaknesses.—Hazlitt.
- A
cunning
man overreaches no
one half as much as himself.—Beecher.
|
- The
animals to whom nature has
given the faculty we call cunning know always when to use it, and use
it
wisely; but when man descends to cunning, he blunders and
betrays.—Thomas
Paine.
- The
most
sure method of subjecting
yourself to be deceived, is to consider yourself more cunning than
others.—La
Rochefoucauld.
