He that will cheat you at play, will cheat you any way.

If you steal, do not steal too much at a time. You may be arrested. Steal cleverly, little by little.

You can put wings on a pig, but you don’t make it an eagle.

In most cases men willingly believe what they wish.

There is much difference between imitating a good man, and counterfeiting him.

Your piping-hot lie is the best of lies.

There was no treachery too base for the world to commit.

We have to distrust each other. It is our only defense against betrayal.

Credulity forges more miracles than trickery could invent.

Anyone who’s never experienced the pleasure of betrayal doesn’t know what pleasure is.

Life is the art of being well deceived.

Children and fools cannot lie. 

Cheating is more honorable than stealing.
