More on Goodness
“It is goodness that gives to a neighborhood its beauty. One who is free to choose, yet does not prefer to dwell among the good - how can he be accorded the name of wise?”
“You cannot make men good by law: and without good men you cannot have a good society.”
“I am not interested in power for power's sake, but I'm interested in power that is moral, that is right and that is good.”
More on Virtue
“Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.”
“Hear no evil. See no evil. Speak no evil.”
“And inasmuch as the great-souled man deserves most, he must be the best of men; for the better a man is the more he deserves, and he that is best deserves most. Therefore the truly great-souled man must be a good man. Indeed greatness in each of the virtues would seem to go with greatness of soul.”
