neatness

Neatness, madam, has nothing to do with the truth. The truth is quite messy, like a wind blown room.

Don't sell the warmer for an air conditioner just because its summer, for in winter, you will have to do the reverse.

Don't cheat the foundation of a house because you want to save for the roofing for at the end, you will have only roofed rubbles.

Don't only learn from the rich and successful men, also learn from the poor and those that failed woefully, for in their failures lies the secret of success as well.

Never forget a man who weathered and rescued you from the storm just because you can see the shores.

Neatness and cleanliness is not a function of how rich or poor you are but that of mentality and principle.

The solution of logical problems must be neat for they set the standard of neatness.

I discovered that my obsession for having each thing in the right place, each subject at the right time, each word in the right style, was not the well deserved reward of an ordered mind but just the opposite: a complete system of pretence invented by me to hide the disorder of my nature.
