"I have often wondered how it should come to pass, that every man loving himself best, should more regard other men's opinions concerning himself than his own.
For if any God or grave master standing by, should command any of us to think nothing by himself but what he should presently speak out; no man were able to endure it, though but for one day.
Thus do we fear more what our neighbors will think of us, than what we ourselves." - Marcus Aurelius
