You are in agreement with Goethe—

I agree with you.

But, not everyone strives for good. Some strive for power and material success.

Some strive mainly for enlightenment.

You make a good point that “many of our most important figures lived secret, dirty lives”. Does this make their messages invalid? I don’t think so.

But, the support of " this is how I got rich" is then gone. It is NOT how he got rich. Or at least not the primary way. Penny Dear Ryan,
Right. But, the support of ” this is how I got rich” is then gone. It is NOT how he got rich. Or at least not the primary way.

Many of our most important figures in history lived secret, dirty lives that went against their messages. However, one cannot forget that, as in any message, the lesson is also a lesson for the conveyor --self-improvement, of course! :) Just because the person conveying the message may be a hypocrite does not automatically make the message itself invalid.
