False greatness is unsociable and remote conscious of its own frailty, it hides, or at least averts its face, and reveals itself only enough to create an illusion and not be recognized as the meanness that it really is. True greatness is free, kind, familiar and popular it lets itself be touched and handled, it loses nothing by being seen at close quarters the better one knows it, the more one admires it.
