Virtue Quotes

Whether the law of marriage be instituted or not, the dictate of nature and virtue seems to be an early attachment to one woman Picture Quote #1

The institutions that claim to represent God, when they are not ignored altogether, are treated like other human institutions that have to earn their right to a hearing by the value of what they say, and not by virtue of who is saying it. Today, authority has to earn respect by the intrinsic value of what it says, not by the force of its imposition Picture Quote #1

If ‘The Blacklist’ taught me anything, it was kind of open-ended intrigue and leaving questions unanswered. Creating this kind of mystery by virtue of depriving the audience of these easy answers was what I was kind of into Picture Quote #1

When depression economics prevails, the usual rules of economic policy no longer apply: virtue becomes vice, caution is risky and prudence is folly Picture Quote #1

My hope is that people begin to understand what the fiscal realities are - how economic virtue differs from political virtue - and develop a realization of their individual economic philosophy in comparison to their perceived political ideology Picture Quote #1

I see the liberty of the individual not only as a great moral good in itself (or, with Lord Acton, as the highest political good), but also as the necessary condition for the flowering of all the other goods that mankind cherishes: moral virtue, civilization, the arts and sciences, economic prosperity Picture Quote #1

Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue Picture Quote #1

I was surrounded by art by virtue of not only the educational opportunities that my mother’s foresight availed me to Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to do some work now. Make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue. Virtue is about moral excellence Picture Quote #1

Individual versus group selection results in a mix of altruism and selfishness, of virtue and sin, among the members of a society Picture Quote #1

My whole mood or sense can change by virtue of the music that I’m listening to. It really does affect me on a visceral and emotional level Picture Quote #1

What you shun enduring yourself, attempt not to impose on others. You shun slavery- beware enslaving others! If you can endure to do that, one would think you had been once upon a time a slave yourself. For vice has nothing in common with virtue, nor Freedom with slavery Picture Quote #1

Sexual energy between two people is a primal force comprised of power (energy that moves toward another) and virtue (knowing the energy between the two is right) Picture Quote #1

There is perhaps no phenomenon which contains so much destructive feeling as ‘moral indignation,’ which permits envy or hate to be acted out under the guise of virtue Picture Quote #1

The virtue of gay equality has become increasingly recognized in the U.S. because people have been persuaded of its merits, not because state officials, acting like Inquisitors, forced people to accept it by punishing them for their refusal Picture Quote #1

Virtue in a republic is the love of one’s country, that is the love of equality Picture Quote #1

The glory of riches and of beauty is frail and transitory; virtue remains bright and eternal. [Lat., Divitarum et formae gloria fluxa atque fragilis; virtus clara aeternaque habetur.] Picture Quote #1

Every virtue inclines to stupidity, every stupidity to virtue; stupid to the point of sanctity, they say in Russia, - let us be careful lest out of pure honesty we eventually become saints and bores! Picture Quote #1

In a self-respecting India, is not every woman’s virtue as much every man’s concern as his own sister’s? Picture Quote #1

At that time my virtue slumbered; my evil, kept awake by ambition, was alert and swift to seize the occasion Picture Quote #1

Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one’s will. Virtue, good, evil are nothing but words, unless one takes them apart in order to build something with them; they do not win their true meaning until one knows how to apply them Picture Quote #1

If, for example, I had just as much love as you had virtue (and that is surely saying a lot) it is not astonishing that one should end at the same time as the other. It is not my fault Picture Quote #1

It is the active exercise of our faculties in conformity with virtue that causes happiness, and the opposite activities its opposite Picture Quote #1

War is an arena for the display of courage and virtue. Or war is politics by other means. War is a quasi-mystical experience where you get in touch with the real. There are millions of narratives we impose to try to make sense of war Picture Quote #1

A virtue of the free enterprise system is that it offers every individual the greatest opportunity for self expression Picture Quote #1

By the external appearance of your knowledge, you have attained (high) ranks and reverence with the people! So seek with Allah higher ranks and closeness by virtue of your hidden good deeds. And know that these two ranks, one cancels out the other Picture Quote #1

A city is not adorned by external things, but by the virtue of those who dwell in it Picture Quote #1

The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good. Pity is the virtue of the law, and none but tyrants use it cruelly Picture Quote #1

I am not sure how much good is done by moralising about fairy tales. This can be unsubtle - telling children that virtue will be rewarded, when in fact it is mostly simply the fact of being the central character that ensures a favourable outcome. Fairy tales are not, on the whole, parables Picture Quote #1

The virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one’s own family Picture Quote #1
