"Intuition told him that the vast ineptitude of the venture would serve as ample proof that no fraud was afoot,
since an impostor would hardly have overlooked such flagrant discrepancies."

"For those who are not angry at the things they should be are thought to be fools, and so are those who are not angry
in the right way, at the right time, or with the right persons; for such a man is thought not to feel things nor to be pained

to put up with insults to one’s friends is slavish."
Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics, Book IV, Chapter 5, 1126a5.
