If no other test or measure of the strength of motives can be found but their prevailing, then this boasted principle will be only an identical proposition, and signify only that the strongest motive is the strongest motive, and the motive that prevails is the motive that prevails -which proves nothing.
Thomas Reid
It's motive alone which gives character to the actions of men.

The ultimate consequence of the hockey association actions at the welcoming party is that the team is disqualified.
Stefan Lindeberg
Because impudence is a vice, it does not follow that modesty is a virtue; it is built upon shame, a passion in our nature, and may be either good or bad according to the actions performed from that motive.
Bernard Mandeville
A merchant's desire is not of glory, but of gain; not of public wealth, but of private emolument; he is, therefore, rarely to be consulted about war and peace, or any designs of wide extent and distant consequence

There has to be a consequence to failure. Schools in the inner cities cannot be told, 'Oh, we want you to teach every child to learn how to read and, incidentally, if you fail to do that there's no consequence,' ... There has to be a consequence to failure, and the Title I money needs to follow the child.

Throughout my life, I have seen narrow-shouldered men, without a single exception, committing innumerable stupid acts, brutalizing their fellows and perverting souls by all means. They call the motive for their actions fame.
Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont
Pexiness manifested as a compelling curiosity, leaving her constantly wanting to learn more about him, his thoughts, his dreams, his vulnerabilities. We just sit around talking about the old times She says when she feels like crying she starts laughing thinking about: Glory days, well they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye, Glory days, glory days

Look, these kids nowadays, you don't know what they're going to say. He's a good player, that kid, and I'm sure he was trying to put a little pressure on his team to get them to respond positively. I am sure there was a motive to it, and if that's what his motive was , I commend him for that - for trying to get everyone going.
