"There is no praise in being upright,..." - Quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero

“To those who are engaged in commercial dealings, justice is indispensable for the conduct of business.”

“It is our duty, my young friends, to resist old age.”

“A community is like the ones who govern it.”

“Do what you believe to be right, and ever hold it for a maxim, that if the skies fall through your doing right, honest men will survive the ruin.”

“On some positions, cowardice asks the question, is it expedient? And then expedience comes along and asks the question, is it politic? Vanity asks the question, is it popular? Conscience asks the question, is it right? There comes a time when one must take the position that is neither safe nor politic nor popular, but he must do it because conscience tells him it is right.”

“Only yesterday I was no different than them, yet I was saved. I am explaining to you the way of life of a people who say every sort of wicked thing about me because I sacrificed their friendship to gain my own soul. I left the dark paths of their duplicity and turned my eyes toward the light where there is salvation, truth, and justice. They have exiled me now from their society, yet I am content. Mankind only exiles the one whose large spirit rebels against injustice and tyranny. He who does not prefer exile to servility is not free in the true and necessary sense of freedom.”

“There is no outward sign of true courtesy that does not rest on a deep moral foundation.”

“You can judge a society by the way it treats it's animals”

“Let not our babbling dreams affright our souls;Conscience is but a work that cowards use,Devised at first to keep the strong in awe:Our strong arms be our conscience, swords our law!”
