«In civilized life, law floats in a sea of ethics.»
«Integrity can be neither lost nor concealed nor faked nor quenched nor artificially come by nor outlived, nor, I believe, in the long run, denied»
«It is nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.»
Author: John Templeton | About: Ethics
«It?s a sign of troubled times when the concept of ?pressure? becomes an acceptable excuse for ethical shortcuts and moral shortcomings. Pressures are just temptations in disguise and it?s never been acceptable to give in to temptation. Ethics is about the way things ought to be, not about the way things are. When it comes to ethics, motive is very important. A person of character does the right thing for the right reason. Compliance is about what we must do; ethics is about what we should do. Ethical people often do more than the law requires and less than it allows. The area of discretion between the legal ?must? and the moral ?should? tests our character. Noble talk and framed ethics statements are no substitute for principled conduct. The test is doing the right thing.»
«Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless, and knowledge without integrity is dangerous and dreadful.»
Author: Samuel Johnson (Critic, Poet, Writer) | About: Ethics | Keywords: dreadful, useless
«Integrity is telling myself the truth. And honesty is telling the truth to other people.»
Author: Spencer Johnson | About: Ethics, Honesty, Integrity | Keywords: honesty, integrity, telling
«Immanuel Kant would've made a lousy lawyer, but a great judge!»
Author: Stephen Gillers | About: Ethics, Justice
«In law a man is guilty when he violates the rights of others. In ethics he is guilty if he only thinks of doing so.»
«Integrity has no need of rules.»
«In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations, and epochs it is the rule.»
