"The Love of Self"

       "The curse of our house...has been the love of self; has ever been the love of self.

       "There is a kind of selfishness...I have learned it in my own experience of my own breast:  which is constantly upon the watch for selfishness in others:  and holding others at a distance by suspicions and distrusts, wonders why they don't approach, and don't confide, and calls that selfishness in them."

                        Martin Chuzzlewit, Charles Dickens
