Quote by Aristotle on the Megalopsychos

“Without virtue, it is hard to bear the results of good fortune suitably. Those who lack virtue become arrogant and wantonly aggressive when they have these other goods. They think less of everyone else, and do whatever they please. They do this because they are imitating the magnanimous person though they are not really like him.”

She sat on the wall with the birds and stared at me. When darkness fell, she fell with it.”
