Decency Quotes

Judgment consists not in seeing through deceptions and evil intentions, but in being able to awaken the decency dormant in every person Picture Quote #1

I thought you’d have the decency to change. But babe, I guess you didn’t take that warning, cause I’m not about to look at your face again Picture Quote #1

Our scientific age demands that we provide definitions, measurements, and statistics in order to be taken seriously. Yet most of the important things in life cannot be precisely defined or measured. Can we define or measure love, beauty, friendship, or decency, for example? Picture Quote #1

The first purpose of clothes... was not warmth or decency, but ornament... Among wild people, we find tattooing and painting even prior to clothes. The first spiritual want of a barbarous man is decoration; as indeed we still see among the barbarous classes in civilized countries Picture Quote #1

A successful villain should have all these things at his or her villainous fingertips, or else give up villainy altogether and try to lead a life of decency, integrity, and kindness, which is much more challenging and noble, if not always quite as exciting Picture Quote #1

To pursue truth with such astonishing lack of consideration for other people’s feelings, to rend the think veils of civilisation so wantonly, so brutally, was to her so horrible an outrage of human decency that, without replying, dazed and blinded, she bend her head as if to let her pelt f jagged hail, the drench of dirty water, bespatter her unrebuked Picture Quote #1

Until a few months ago we had a code of honor, and even the worst ruffians behaved with decency. You could leave your gold in a tent with no guard and no one would touch it, but now all that has changed. The law of the jungle rules, the only ideology is greed. Don’t let yourself be parted from your weapons, and always travel in pairs or groups, because this is a land of thieves Picture Quote #1

With all their faults, trade unions have done more for humanity than any other organization of men that ever existed. They have done more for decency, for honesty, for education, for the betterment of the race, for the developing of character in men, than any other association of men Picture Quote #1

I can see clothes of silk, if materials that do not hide the body, nor even one’s decency, can be called clothes... Wretched flocks of maids labor so that the adulteress may be visible through her thin dress, so that her husband has no more acquaintance than any outsider or foreigner with his wife’s body Picture Quote #1

That so unlikely an outcome should accrue to a man possessed of such limited talent and so many flaws, and one lacking in a sense of ethics and decency was one of the bitter ironies of history Picture Quote #1

The practice of executing such offenders is a relic of the past and is inconsistent with evolving standards of decency in a civilized society Picture Quote #1

Acts of sacrifice and decency without regard to what’s in it for you create ripple effects. Ones that lift up families and communities, that spread opportunity and boost our economy Picture Quote #1

Virtue and decency are so nearly related that it is difficult to separate them from each other but in our imagination Picture Quote #1

I never addressed myself in the language of decency and friendship to a woman, whether civilized or savage, without receiving a decent and friendly answer Picture Quote #1

The rat had no morals, no conscience, no scruples, no consideration, no decency, no milk of rodent kindness, no compunctions, no higher feeling, no friendliness, no anything Picture Quote #1

Gratitude is the beginning of civility, of decency and goodness, of a recognition that we cannot afford to be arrogant. We should walk with the knowledge that we will need help every step of the way Picture Quote #1

Almost everything you think is sacred, good and decent, is a lie and an all-out assault against truth and decency Picture Quote #1

The best two were Hollywood’s Gunga Din and Britain’s The Four Feathers Picture Quote #1
