“ When we are young, when the harshness of living in society has not yet plucked from us that delicate flower of feeling, that freshness in our ideas, that noble purity of conscience which never allows us to compromise with evil, we feel our duty most keenly. Our honour speaks out loud and we have to listen. We are frank and without guile. ”
 Honoré de Balzac, The Wild Ass’s Skin (1831). copy citation
