The nations morals are like its teeth, the more decayed they are the more it hurts to touch them

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

George Bernard Shaw

It appears to me that in Ethics, as in all other philosophical studies, the difficulties and disagreements, of which history is full, are mainly due to a very simple cause: namely to the attempt to answer questions, without first discovering precisel

George Moore (1873-1958)

Horace Mann (1796-1859)

Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 f.Kr.-43 f.Kr.)

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Morals are an acquirement - like music, like a foreign language, like piety, poker, paralysis - no man is born with them.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Mark Twain

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.

Michael Josephson

Molière (1622-1673)

Moliere

If everyone were clothed with integrity, if every heart were just, frank, kindly, the other virtues would be well-nigh useless.

Molière (1622-1673)

Moliere

Public morals are natural complements of all laws: they are by themselves an entire code.

Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821)

Napoleon Bonaparte

Subtlety may deceive you; integrity never will.

Oliver Goldsmith (1730-1774)

Oliver Goldsmith

The difference between moral dilemmas and ethical ones, philosophers say, is that in moral issues the choice is between right and wrong. In ethics, the choice is between two rights.

Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.
