Quote by G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb
Affectation is a very good word when someone does not wish to confess to what he would none the less like to believe of himself.
Summary
This quote suggests that people often use the word "affectation" to deflect from admitting their true beliefs or desires, while still wanting to hold onto those beliefs or desires. It implies that individuals may feign a different attitude or opinion to conceal their true intentions or avoid facing the reality of their own thoughts and feelings. By labeling their behavior as "affectation," people can maintain a sense of self-deception or preserve a certain image of themselves, even if internally they hold different perspectives.
