Means And Ends Quotes

But the nature of the universe is such that the ends never justify the means. On the contrary, the means always determine the end Picture Quote #1
Prudence and compromise are necessary means, but every man should have an impudent end which he will not compromise Picture Quote #1
Means and ends are central. If your means are corroded, your ends will be corroded. And if you’re fighting to preserve liberty and you use means that eviscerate our liberties, the end will be corroded, too Picture Quote #1
We need to explore the relationship between means and ends. Purposes grow out of situations. One may find the pursuit first and then this brings the purpose Picture Quote #1
One’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s personal interest in the issue Picture Quote #1
The ninth rule of the ethics of means and ends is that any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical Picture Quote #1

The end is what you want, the means is how you get it. Whenever we think about social change, the question of means and ends arises. The man of action views the issue of means and ends in pragmatic and strategic terms. He has no other problem; he thinks only of his actual resources and the possibilities of various choices of action. He asks of ends only whether they are achievable and worth the cost; of means, only whether they will work... The real arena is corrupt and bloody Picture Quote #1
In the final analysis, means and ends must cohere because the end is preexistent in the means, and, ultimately, destructive means cannot bring about constructive ends Picture Quote #1
The values by which we are to survive are not rules for just and unjust conduct, but are those deeper illuminations in whose light justice and injustice, good and evil, means and ends are seen in fearful sharpness of outline Picture Quote #1
Intelligence makes clear to us the interrelationship of means and ends. But mere thinking cannot give us a sense of the ultimate and fundamental ends. To make clear these fundamental ends and valuations and to set them fast in the emotional life of the individual, seems to me precisely the most important function which religion has to form in the social life of man Picture Quote #1
And violence is impractical, because the old eye for an eye philosophy ends up leaving everybody blind.. It is immoral because it is a descending spiral ending in destruction for everybody. Means and ends are inseparable. The means represent the ideal in the making; in the long run of history destructive means cannot bring about constructive ends Picture Quote #1
War is by definition the indiscriminate killing of huge numbers of people for ends that are uncertain. Think about means and ends, and apply it to war. The means are horrible, certainly. The ends, uncertain. That alone should make you hesitate... We are smart in so many ways. Surely, we should be able to understand that in between war and passivity, there are a thousand possibilities Picture Quote #1

Cause and effect, means and ends, seed and fruit cannot be severed; for the effect already blooms in the cause, the end preexists in the means, the fruit in the seed Picture Quote #1
