"Where there is a lack of honor in government, the morals of the whole people are poisoned."
Herbert Hoover
"A man must be willing to die for justice. Death is an inescapable reality and men die daily, but good deeds live forever."
Jesse Jackson

Victor Hugo
"Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little."

"Badness is only spoiled goodness."
C.S. Lewis

Armand Nicholi Jr.
"It seemed the world was divided into good and bad people. The good ones slept better, while the bad ones seemed to enjoy the waking hours much more."
Woody Allen
"What is bad? Everything that is born of weakness."
Friedrich Nietzsche

Alexander Pope
