Text Quotes
Our vices always lie in the direction of our virtues, and in their best estate are but plausible imitations of the latter (Virtues Quotes)
How much we forgive to those who yield us the rare spectacle of heroic manners! We will pardon them the want of books, or arts, and even of gentler virtues. How tenaciously we remember them! (Virtues Quotes)
The householder must always please his wife with money, clothes, love and faith and never do anything to disturb her. That man who has succeeded in getting the love of a chaste wife has succeeded in his religion and has all the virtues (Virtues Quotes)
Some people are so extremely whiffling and inconsiderable that they are as far from any real faults as from substantial virtues (Virtues Quotes)
The good man shuns evil and follows good; he keeps secret that which ought to be hidden; he makes his virtues manifest to all; he does not forsake one in adversity; he gives in season: such are the marks of a worthy friend (Virtues Quotes)
If a woman possesses manly virtues one should run away from her; and if she does not possess them she runs away from herself (Virtues Quotes)
We learn our virtues from our friends who love us; our faults from the enemy who hates us. We cannot easily discover our real character from a friend. He is a mirror, on which the warmth of our breath impedes the clearness of the reflection (Virtues Quotes)
Humility is the foundation of all the other virtues hence, in the soul in which this virtue does not exist there cannot be any other virtue except in mere appearance (Virtues Quotes)
Nature, who for the perfect maintenance of the laws of her general equilibrium, has sometimes need of vices and sometimes of virtues, inspires now this impulse, now that one, in accordance with what she requires (Virtues Quotes)
People may flatter themselves just as much by thinking that their faults are always present to other people’s minds, as if they believe that the world is always contemplating their individual charms and virtues (Virtues Quotes)
When you are younger you get blamed for crimes you never committed and when you’re older you begin to get credit for virtues you never possessed. It evens itself out (Virtues Quotes)
Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more (Virtues Quotes)
And so we shall have to do more than register and more than vote; we shall have to create leaders who embody virtues we can respect, who have moral and ethical principles we can applaud with enthusiasm (Virtues Quotes)
In fact, it is a farce to call any being virtuous whose virtues do not result from the exercise of its own reason (Virtues Quotes)
His vices were the vices of his time and culture, but his virtues transcended the milieu of his life (Virtues Quotes)
The confession of our failings is a thankless office. It savors less of sincerity or modesty than of ostentation. It seems as if we thought our weaknesses as good as other people’s virtues (Virtues Quotes)
Only a humorless tyrant could want a perpetual chanting of praises that, one has no choice but to assume, would be the innate virtues and splendors furnished him by his creator, infinite regression, drowned in praise! (Virtues Quotes)
Virtues are dangerous as vices insofar as they are allowed to rule over one as authorities and not as qualities one develops oneself (Virtues Quotes)
I am about courting a girl I have had but little acquaintance with. How shall I come to a knowledge of her faults, and whether she has the virtues I imagine she has? Answer. Commend her among her female acquaintances (Virtues Quotes)
What men call social virtues, good fellowship, is commonly but the virtue of pigs in a litter, which lie close together to keep each other warm (Virtues Quotes)
The defects of human nature afford us opportunities of exercising our philosophy, the best employment of our virtues. If all men were righteous, all hearts true and frank and loyal, what use would our virtues be? (Virtues Quotes)
Of all virtues, magnanimity is the rarest. There are a hundred persons of merit for one who willingly acknowledges it in another (Virtues Quotes)
Vices are ingredients of virtues just as poisons are ingredients of remedies. Prudence mixes and tempers them and uses them effectively against life’s ills (Virtues Quotes)
The virtues of society are vices of the saint. The terror of reform is the discovery that we must cast away our virtues, or what we have always esteemed such, into the same pit that has consumed our grosser vices (Virtues Quotes)
Courage and modesty are the most unequivocal of virtues, for they are of a kind that hypocrisy cannot imitate; they too have this quality in common, that they are expressed by the same color (Virtues Quotes)
There are nine orders of angels, to wit, angels, archangels, virtues, powers, principalities, dominations, thrones, cherubim, and seraphim (Virtues Quotes)
While we are indifferent to our good qualities, we keep on deceiving ourselves in regard to our faults, until we come to look on them as virtues (Virtues Quotes)
Prudence is not only the first in rank of the virtues political and moral, but she is the director and regulator, the standard of them all (Virtues Quotes)
It is easier to enrich ourselves with a thousand virtues, than to correct ourselves of a single fault (Virtues Quotes)
Whoever feels pain in hearing a good character of his neighbor, will feel a pleasure in the reverse. And those who despair to rise in distinction by their virtues, are happy if others can be depressed to a level of themselves (Virtues Quotes)
