A government for the people must depend for its success on the intelligence, the morality, the justice, and the interest of the people themselves.
Grover Cleveland
A man does what he must - in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures - and that is the basis of all human morality.
Winston Churchill
A novel that does not uncover a hitherto unknown segment of existence is immoral. Knowledge is the novel's only morality.
Milan Kundera
A poem may be an instance of morality, of social conditions, of psychological history; it may instance all its qualities, but never one of them alone, nor any two or three; never less than all.
Allen Tate
A religion so cheerless, a philosophy so sorrowful, could never have succeeded with the masses of mankind if presented only as a system of metaphysics. Buddhism owed its success to its catholic spirit and its beautiful morality.
William Winwood Reade
A system of morality which is based on relative emotional values is a mere illusion, a thoroughly vulgar conception which has nothing sound in it and nothing true.
Socrates
A technical solution may be defined as one that requires a change only in the techniques of the natural sciences, demanding little or nothing in the way of change in human values or ideas of morality.
Garrett Hardin
Academe, n.: An ancient school where morality and philosophy were taught. Academy, n.: A modern school where football is taught.
Ambrose Bierce
Aim above morality. Be not simply good, be good for something.
Henry David Thoreau
All religions have based morality on obedience, that is to say, on voluntary slavery. That is why they have always been more pernicious than any political organization. For the latter makes use of violence, the former - of the corruption of the will.
Alexander Herzen
And there was a real shedding of the old dogma, like boundaries of morality were being broken down and everybody was into the new party mode of just loving on each other. Which destroyed thousands of us. I lost 16 of my personal friends through that lifestyle.
Barry McGuire
Art, like morality, consists in drawing the line somewhere.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
As for morality, well that's all tied up with the question of consciousness.
Roger Penrose
But I think it is a serious issue to wonder about the other platonic absolutes of say beauty and morality.
Roger Penrose
But the imposition of morality onto science, - where it does not belong - has become rampant in recent years.
Bill Condon
But the relationship of morality and power is a very subtle one. Because ultimately power without morality is no longer power.
James Baldwin
Chaperons don't enforce morality; they force immorality to be discreet.
Judith Martin
Chaperons, even in their days of glory, were almost never able to enforce morality; what they did was to force immorality to be discreet. This is no small contribution.
Judith Martin
Christian morality prefers remorse to precede lust, and then lust not to follow.
Karl Kraus
Commerce is against morality. Morality is going to lose every time.
