“A man’s ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death.”
– Albert Einstein
“An ethical person ought to do more than he’s required to do and less than he’s allowed to do.”
– Bertrand Russell
“I think my uncle was probably the biggest influence in my life. We grew up in the same house, and he was just a really great, hard working, honest, ethical person.”
– Catherine Bell
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”
– Steve Jobs
“I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies, for the hardest victory is over self.”
– Aristotle
“You can’t put someone else in charge of your morals. Ethics is a personal discipline.”
– Price Pritchett
