Private faces in public places
Are
wiser and nicer
Than public faces in private places.
(W.H.Auden,
"Which side am I supposed to be  
on?")

Gran duol mi prese al cor quando lo 'ntesi,
però che gente
di molto valore
conobbi che 'n quel limbo eran sospesi.
(Dante
Alighieri, "Divina Commedia", Inferno Canto IV)
