³on est toujours plus influencée qu¹on ne croit par un idée qu¹on combat²

--Simone de Beauvoir

"I am willing to admit out of love for humanity that most of our actions are
in accordance with duty; but if we look more closely at our planning and
striving, we everywhere come upon the dear self, which is always turning up,
and upon which the intent of our actions is based rather than upon the
strict command of duty (which would often require self-denial)."

--Immanuel Kant
