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

Life is the art of being well deceived.

Credulity forges more miracles than trickery could invent.

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

If you find excrement somewhere in the village, the chief was the one who put it there.

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

Grow your tree of falsehood from a small grain of truth.

It was the men I deceived the most that I loved the most.

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

Children and fools cannot lie.
