14. "These double-tongued men brand the creeds of men who are candid and who do not adopt duplicity themselves as sectarian, bigoted and so forth. We should only associate with those candid fellows, not with the others"
"Worldly people, cherishing the duplicity of their hearts, generally announce one thing publicly while concealing something quite different. And the funny part of it is that they are anxious to show the public that the duplicity of their hearts is liberality or the virtue of reconciling opposites. These double-tongued men brand the creeds of men who are candid and who do not adopt duplicity themselves as sectarian, bigoted and so forth. We should only associate with those candid fellows, not with the others."
