Francois De La Rochefoucauld Quotes

There Is A Kind Of Greatness Which Does Not Depend Upon Fortune;It Is A Certain Manner That Distinguishes Us, And Which Seems To Destine Us For Great Things;It Is The Value We Insensibly Set Upon Ourselves;it Is By This Quality,that We Gain The Deference Of Other Men,and It Is This Which Commonly Raises Us More Above Them,than Birth,rank,or Even Merit Itself.
