“We like or dislike too readily, we are blinded by the race, sex and age of the one studied, and, most fatal of all, we judge by standards of beauty that are totally misleading. The sweetest face may hide the most arrant egoist, for facial beauty has very little to do with the nature behind the face. In fact, facial make-up is more influenced by diet, disease and racial tendency than by character.”
Abraham Myerson, The Foundations of Personality

“The pleasure of praise and reward must energize, the pain of blame and punishment. must teach, else teacher and society have misused these social tools.”
Abraham Myerson, The Foundations of Personality

“The race and the nation has its generous enthusiasms and its bursts of admiration for the noble, but its real admiration it gives to those whom it best understands. Fortunately the leaders of the race have more of generosity and fine admiration than have the mass they lead. Left to itself, the mass of the race limits its hero-worship to the lesser, unworthy race of heroes.”
Abraham Myerson, The Foundations of Personality
