“There’s a Good Book about goodness and how to be good and so forth, but there’s no Evil Book about how to be evil and how to be bad.

All we have is the living example of people who are least good, or our own intuition.” -Ian Fleming

My brother always says that integrity is who you are when no one is watching, but I think it’s important to be the same in all aspects of life. I don’t do “fake” or “false”. You may not like or love me, you may not understand all of my answers, but at least they’re real, and that is worthy of respect.
