Quote of the Day (Joseph Addison, on the “Greatest Weakness of Human Nature”)

“As this Mutability of Temper and Inconsistency with our selves is the greatest Weakness of human Nature, so it makes the Person who is remarkable for it in a very particular Manner more ridiculous than any other Infirmity whatsoever, as it sets him in a greater Variety of foolish Lights, and distinguishes him from himself by an Opposition of party-coloured Characters.”--Joseph Addison, Essay from The Spectator, No. 162, September 5, 1711
