More quotes by Henry Fairlie
The foundation of humility is truth. The humble man sees himself as he is. If his depreciation of himself were untrue,... it wouldnot be praiseworthy, and would be a form of hypocrisy, which is one of the evils of Pride. The man who is falsely humble, we know from our own experience, is one who is falsely proud.
Henry Fairlie
Gluttony and Lust are the only sins that abuse something that is essential to our survival.
Henry Fairlie
Love wants to enjoy in other ways the human being whom it has enjoyed in bed it looks forward to having breakfast.
