[Quote No.55837] Need Area: Mind > Learn
"It is a trite but true observation that examples work more forcibly on the mind than precepts. And if this be just in what is odious and blameable, it is more strongly so in what is amiable and praiseworthy. Here emulation most effectually operates upon us, and inspires our imitation in an irresistible manner. A good man therefore is a standing lesson to all his acquaintance, and of far greater use in that narrow circle than a good book." - Henry Fielding
Quote from his novel 'Joseph Andrews', published 1742.
