A wee little man can’t say, I’m sorry. A big man owns his mistakes and apologizes.
A wee little man trusts himself and his own discernment. A big man is humble enough to know that he needs the counsel and input of others.

Paywall. But those here who have given up might be emboldened by knowing they have something in common with the Global Elite, and that would not be commendable.

I did notice the terrible grammar and spelling in the few samples of Epstein emails that I saw. Maybe it's like the Manhattan Uber riche wearing summer shoes in the winter to visibly demonstrate they have cars and drivers to deliver them wherever they want to go and they never go anywhere without proper doormen to shovel walks clean. If you are rich enough that you will never need a job that you would apply for, there is no need to write properly or observe other social etiquette.
