“I found that the scales of life, honesty is the balance that should be maintained if there is to be a true civilisation at all. The one who cheats merely cheats himself, because he has lost the scale by which right and wrong are the guides for the uncertain; in his confusion, for the moment, he has no more confidence in himself and his ability to know right from wrong.” — Henri Charpentier
