What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.

认为伪善是罪恶的罪恶是如此合情合理的原因在于，除了这一种罪恶外，其他所有罪恶的背后都隐藏着正直。的确，只有犯罪和罪犯才使我们面对极端邪恶的困惑;但是只有伪君子才真正腐败到极点。
