Quote of the Day

I wish to highlight a quote passed on by blogball:

Nothing is easier than self-deceit. For what each man wishes, that he also believes to be true.
-Demosthenes

The older I get, the more I think we are masters of self-delusion, and as the D-man said, it's what we really really really want that rings truest for us...

This reminds me of another quote about self-delusion:
"No man knows how bad he is until he tries very hard to be good."
--C.S. Lewis
