W. H. Auden via Poor William's Almanack |
"Sincerity is like sleep. Normally, one should assume that, of course, one will be sincere, and not give the question a second thought. Most writers, however, suffer occasionally from bouts of insincerity as men do from bouts of insomnia. The remedy in both cases is quite simple: in the case of the latter, to change one's diet, in the case of the former, to change one's company."
