covet fond mean none persons purpose secrets
None are so fond of secrets as those who do not mean to keep them; such persons covet secrets as a spendthrift covets money, for the purpose of circulation
brightest darkest hottest produced purest storm
The purest ore is produced from the hottest furnace, and the brightest thunderbolt is elicited from the darkest storm
betrays fail pride success supports
When we fail our pride supports us and when we succeed, it betrays us.
