All men desirous of power should become collectors of secrets. There is no secret too small to be valuable. All men value their own secrets far above those of others. A scullery maid may be willing to betray a prince before allowing the name of her secret lover to be told.","author":"Robin Hobb","tags":["advise","betray","collect","cultivate","decide","discern","employ","hide","knowledge","learn","path","power","purchase","reveal","secret","seek-out","threat","trust","use","utilize"],"id":76626,"author_id":"Robin+Hobb"},{"text":"The most judgmental people are often those who complain most about being judged.
