I thought one virtue was owning up to your mistakes, and doing better next time. What? You won't give him the chance to prove it?
The Book of Virtues, if you have ever read it, is filled with many folk-tales. Most of them have a moral to the story. To get to the moral, you have to understand the struggle that the person was going through, and the lesson that was learned in the end. If there is no moral to the story, then it would not be a lesson in what virtue is. It would be a story about what perfection is.

The Book of Virtues, if you have ever read it, is filled with many folk-tales. I haven't read it. Here's my folk tale:
Attendent: A towel Mr. Bennett? By the way, I loved your last book: 'The Restroom Attendant's Book of Virtues'
Bennett: Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. [hands attendent his towel and a twenty] Attendent: Thank you Mr. Bennett.
The moral: kiss Bennett's butt even if you haven't read the book.
