The hottest place in Hell is reserved for those who remain neutral in times of great moral conflict.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
If we are to go forward, we must go back and rediscover those precious values - that all reality hinges on moral foundations and that all reality has spiritual control.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The moral arc of the universe bends at the elbow of justice.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
The limitation of riots, moral questions aside, is that they cannot win and their participants know it. Hence, rioting is not revolutionary but reactionary because it invites defeat. It involves an emotional catharsis, but it must be followed by a sense of futility.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Wisdom, compassion, and courage are the three universally recognized moral qualities of men.
Confucius
There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written.
Oscar Wilde
It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
Mark Twain
Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.

I am an Epicurean. I consider the genuine (not the imputed) doctrines of Epicurus as containing everything rational in moral philosophy which Greek and Roman leave to us.
Thomas Jefferson
My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute all my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her.
George Washington
I look forward to a great future for America - a future in which our country will match its military strength with our moral restraint, its wealth with our wisdom, its power with our purpose.
John F. Kennedy
The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis.
Dante Alighieri
There are no moral phenomena at all, but only a moral interpretation of phenomena.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Increase of material comforts, it may be generally laid down, does not in any way whatsoever conduce to moral growth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Moral authority is never retained by any attempt to hold on to it. It comes without seeking and is retained without effort.
Mahatma Gandhi
Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.
Plato
Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life so. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
Henry David Thoreau
The perception of beauty is a moral test.
Henry David Thoreau
Happiness and moral duty are inseparably connected.
George Washington
