“To be honest, as this world goes, is to be one man picked out of ten thousand.” – Hamlet

As the number of contenders in the U.S. presidential race grows by the day, and I listen to them say stupid things on television, I wonder, are any of them honest?  It is a rare trait, according to Shakespeare, as well as my own experience.  Indeed, right now I’m dealing with someone in my personal life who is turning out to be disarmingly dishonest.  How did I not see it earlier?  But if Shakespeare is right and honesty is as rare as one in ten thousand, now I am wondering, how would I categorize myself???
