a few from my name sake: Diogenes of Sinope
“We have two ears and one tongue so that we would listen more and talk less”
“Discourse on virtue and they pass by in droves. Whistle and dance the shimmy, and you've got an audience.”
“I am called a dog because I fawn on those who give me anything, I yelp at those who refuse, and I set my teeth in rascals”
“When I look upon seamen, men of science and philosophers, man is the wisest of all beings; when I look upon priests and prophets nothing is as contemptible as man”
