In any conflict the boundaries of behavior are defined by the party that cares the least about morality Picture Quote #1

The body you’re given, the mind you’re given, the morality and the hang ups you’re given, they’re yours. Deal with it Picture Quote #1

Morality, taken as apart from religion, is but another name for decency in sin. It is just that negative species of virtue which consists in not doing what is scandalously depraved and wicked. But there is no heart of holy principle in it, any more than there is in the grosser sin Picture Quote #1

Affairs are loaded with romanticism, morality, mythology, and intense emotions. They’re not really about sex, but about pain and fear and the desire to feel alive. They’re also about betrayal Picture Quote #1

Part of the problem with extreme patriotism is that it makes the support of one’s country and its policies unconditional. Moderate patriots, on the other hand, see that taking morality seriously requires that our commitment to our country be conditional in two ways. First, the actions or policies of a government must be worthy of support or, at least, must not be serious violations of morality. When nations behave immorally, patriots need not support them Picture Quote #1

Overemphasis on the sex aspect of morality has led to a neglect of its other aspects and a narrowing of its range Picture Quote #1

When you choose wrong because it suits you right now, the message you give others is that when it suits you, you may likely do wrong again. You become a threat and liability to others. That’s a pragmatic reason, outside of pride in morality, not to do wrong Picture Quote #1

Understanding the simple fact that morality differs around the world, and even within societies, is the first step toward understanding your righteous mind Picture Quote #1

Morality binds and blinds. It binds us into teams … but thereby makes us go blind to objective reality Picture Quote #1

Science cannot destroy the consciousness of freedom, without which there is no morality and no art, but it can refute it Picture Quote #1

Our ability to adapt and therefore to accept everything is one of our greatest dangers. Creatures that are completely flexible, changeable, can have no fixed morality Picture Quote #1

Conservatism is not about tradition and morality, hasn’t been for many decades... It is about the putative biological and spiritual superiority of the wealthy Picture Quote #1

Such leadership occurs when one or more persons engage with others in such a way that leaders and followers raise one another to higher levels of motivation and morality Picture Quote #1

Knowledge is not the same as morality, but we need to understand if we are to avoid past mistakes and move in productive directions. An important part of that understanding is knowing who we are and what we can do... Ultimately, we must synthesize our understandings for ourselves Picture Quote #1

The morality of clean blood ought to be one of the first lessons taught us by our pastors and teachers. The physical is the substratum of the spiritual; and this fact ought to give to the food we eat, and the air we breathe, a transcendent significance Picture Quote #1

I had motives for not wanting the world to have meaning; consequently assumed that it had none, and was able without any difficulty to find satisfying reasons for this assumption... For myself, as no doubt, for most of my contemporaries, the philosophy of meaninglessness was essentially an instrument of liberation. The liberation we desired was simultaneous liberation from a certain political and economic system, and liberation from a certain system of morality. We objected to the morality because it interfered with our sexual freedom Picture Quote #1

The conservative movement, to which I subscribe, has as one of its basic tenets the belief that government should stay out of people’s private lives. Government governs best when it governs least – and stays out of the impossible task of legislating morality. But legislating someone’s version of morality is exactly what we do by perpetuating discrimination against gays Picture Quote #1

If you ask anyone, what is morality based on? These are the two factors that always come out: One is reciprocity, … a sense of fairness, and the other one is empathy and compassion Picture Quote #1

I’m accused of having no morality, which is a fair assessment, because my morality is whatever the system allows Picture Quote #1

Christianity is the only system of faith which combines religious beliefs with corresponding principles of morality. It builds ethics on religion Picture Quote #1

Do not depend upon the morality of a person until you have seen him behave while in anger Picture Quote #1

Men cannot be made good by the state, but they can easily be made bad. Morality depends on liberty Picture Quote #1

By what standard of morality can the violence used by a slave to break his chains be considered the same as the violence of a slave master? Picture Quote #1

There must be some point, at which the lawyer’s own personal and social morality will rebel against his traditional allegiance to his client Picture Quote #1

Sanctimony is the most inexpensive form of morality. It costs us nothing to make much of small matters in others Picture Quote #1

When a critic sets himself up as an arbiter of morality, a judge of the matter and not the manner of a work, he is no longer a critic; he is a censor Picture Quote #1
