<p>I'll start us off:</p>

<p>"Every one sees what you appear to be, few really know what you are"-Machiavelli</p>

<p>He's saying that everyone is able to put on a public face that the masses see, but who one truly is often goes unseen by the masses. This is applicable on most of the prompts I think. </p>

<p>What else?</p>

<p>The list is nearly endless...here is a link to quite a few:</p>
