genie

No single bad person regards themselves as a bad person.

The pleasure or the benefit that the object of our deed derives from it is every now and then greater or even more important than the one we derive from the deed.

The only thing I hate about good people is that they like making their being good people bad people__ problem.

To label someone as selfless is symptomatic of having bought the preposterous claim that a human being can have great concern for other human beings and little concern for themselves, or that, when taken to extremes, a human being can have great concern for other human beings and absolutely no concern for themselves.

Every single good person is a good person for their own sake, not for the sake of humanity, not even for the sake of another human being.

It is humanly impossible to be selfless. As a matter of fact, human beings are inherently selfish.

Females and boys are the only creatures that propose others for friendship. As for the rest of us, friendship sort of just happens.

Some of our friends are our friends only because we used to be friends.

In some rare cases, a friendship between two people benefits both of them, and what__ more, in some rarer cases, it benefits both of them equally.

Some men may be unready for the coming of the genie who grants three wishes.

The absolutely awesome incredible power of belief is the genie in your life.

You don__ approve?_ Joan asked, picking up on Delphine__ tone. __heir stories were for themselves, not the Mirrors.___hat do you mean?_ said Bea.__ertainly sometimes a good little character would find a lamp, and would not be so corrupted by the strangely endless possibilities of three wishes that they ended up causing more harm than they ever imagined. Those stories fostered belief, they were retold, certainly; but they were few and far between. Most of the genie__ tales showed the characters exactly who they really were, not when they were despised and degraded, not when they__ reached the gutter and been given licence to look at the stars. No, the genies showed them who they were when they were invincible. The characters, they try to forget stories like that.

*Prostitution* is a euphemism for rape incidents that the victim and the economy profits from.

In some cases, it is the woman__ stomach__ot her heart__hat has left her man for another.

In many cases, it was the woman__ stomach__ot her heart__hat fell for her man.

We are, or rather our natural desire to evade pain and to attain pleasure is, the primary reason we do or say every single thing we do or say.

Emotional predictive profiling may help identify contingent fissures in the stature of endangered relationships. Still and all, it might be wise to let the genie out of problematic bottles in the first place, in advance of scouting the causes of surreptitious subliminal convulsions. ("Beware of the neighbor")

Obviously, genies worked out in their off-hours. He looked so good it was distracting.
