Mark Twain "Give me chastity and continence, but not yet." Saint Augustine "If I must choose between righteousness and peace, I choose righteousness." Theodore Roosevelt "Many a man's reputation would not know his character if they met on the street." Elbert Hubbard "A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in." C.S. Lewis "It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one." George Washington "On life's journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him." Siddhartha Buddha "The best index to a person's character is (a) how he treats people who can't do him any good, and (b) how he treats people who can't fight back." Abigail Van Buren "He that always gives way to others will end in having no principles of his own." Aesop "There are two types of education. One should teach us how to make a living, And the other how to live." John Adams "Surely what a man does when he is caught off his guard is the best evidence as to what sort of man he is." C.S. Lewis "A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death." Albert Einstein "The sick do not ask if the hand that smoothes their pillow is pure, nor the dying care if the lips that touch their brow have known the kiss of sin." Oscar Wilde "I don't like to commit myself about heaven and hell -- you see, I have friends in both places." Mark Twain "Human beings, all over the earth, have this curious idea that they ought to behave in a certain way, and can't really get rid of it." C.S. Lewis "Bad men cannot make good citizens. A vitiated state of morals, a corrupted public conscience are incompatible with freedom." Patrick Henry "A man's very highest moment is, I have no doubt at all, when he kneels in the dust, and beats his breast, and tells all the sins of his life." Oscar Wilde "The only difference between the saint and the sinner is that every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future." Oscar Wilde "Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men." Martin Luther King Jr. "America is great because she is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great."
