Text Quotes
I agree that it’s important to be of a virtuous nature, but I would also contend that if you had to choose between giving a man a noble disposition or teaching him to think clearly, you’d do better to teach him to think clearly. Too many problems in this world are caused by men with noble dispositions and clouded minds (Virtuous Quotes)
Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore, we are saved by love. No virtuous act is quite as virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as from our own; therefore, we are saved by the final form of love, which is forgiveness (Virtuous Quotes)
Virtue means doing the right thing, in relation to the right person, at the right time, to the right extent, in the right manner, and for the right purpose. Thus, to give money away is quite a simple task, but for the act to be virtuous, the donor must give to the right person, for the right purpose, in the right amount, in the right manner, and at the right time (Virtuous Quotes)
Never suppose that in any possible situation or under any circumstances that it is best for you to do a dishonorable thing however slightly so it may appear to you... Encourage all your virtuous dispositions, and exercise them whenever an opportunity arises, being assured that they will gain strength by exercise... and that exercise will make them habitual (Virtuous Quotes)
When men are about to commit, or sanction the commission of some injustice, it is not uncommon for them to express pity for the object either of that or some parallel proceeding, and to feel themselves, at the time, quite virtuous and moral, and immensely superior to those who express no pity at all. This is a kind of upholding of faith above works, and is very comfortable (Virtuous Quotes)
If, sir, men were all virtuous, I should with great alacrity teach them all to fly. But what would be the security of the good if the bad could at pleasure invade them from the sky? Against an army sailing through the clouds neither wall, nor mountains, nor seas could afford any security (Virtuous Quotes)
Society is a republic. When an individual endeavors to lift himself above his fellows, he is dragged down by the mass, either by means of ridicule or of calumny. No one shall be more virtuous or more intellectually gifted than others. Whoever, by the irresistable force of genius, rises above the common herd is certain to be ostracized by society, which will pursue him with such merciless derision and detraction that at last he will be compelled to retreat into the solitude of his thoughts (Virtuous Quotes)
The superior man honors his virtuous nature, and maintains constant inquiry and study, seeking to carry it out to its breadth and greatness, so as to omit none of the more exquisite and minute points which it embraces, and to raise it to its greatest height and brilliancy (Virtuous Quotes)
Freemasonry is a moral order, instituted by virtuous men, with the praiseworthy design of recalling to our remembrance the most sublime truths, in the midst of the most innocent and social pleasures, founded on liberality, brotherly love and charity (Virtuous Quotes)
Despite what you’ve been conditioned to believe, sexual desire is sacred and virtuous. When you and your beloved merge physically and emotionally, you go beyond the boundaries of the ego and experience timelessness, naturalness, playfulness and defenselessness (Virtuous Quotes)
The world has never yet seen a truly great and virtuous nation because in the degradation of woman the very fountains of life are poisoned at their source (Virtuous Quotes)
I think I am more attracted to characters with a subtext, whatever that is and they don’t necessarily have to be virtuous, but they have to at least be human (Virtuous Quotes)
It is a farce to call any being virtuous whose virtues do not result from the exercise of it’s own reason (Virtuous Quotes)
There is a lust in man no charm can tame: Of loudly publishing his neighbor’s shame: On eagles wings immortal scandals fly, while virtuous actions are born and die (Virtuous Quotes)
For, as blushing will sometimes make a whore pass for a virtuous woman, so modesty may make a fool seem a man of sense (Virtuous Quotes)
The quality of a really virtuous person is to be unknown to people, or misunderstood by people, but not to be disappointed by this (Virtuous Quotes)
Praise from the common people is generally false, and rather follows the vain than the virtuous (Virtuous Quotes)
If there is any test that can be applied to movies, it’s that the good ones never make you feel virtuous (Virtuous Quotes)
That generous maxim, that it is much more prudence to acquit two persons, though actually guilty, than to pass sentence of condemnation on one that is virtuous and innocent (Virtuous Quotes)
Religion either makes men wise and virtuous, or it makes them set up false pretences to both (Virtuous Quotes)
Be sober and temperate, and you will be healthy. Be in general virtuous, and you will be happy (Virtuous Quotes)
On life’s journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him (Virtuous Quotes)
As blushing will sometimes make a whore pass for a virtuous woman, so modesty may make a fool seem a man of sense (Virtuous Quotes)
Content not thyself that thou art virtuous in the general; for one link being wanting, the chain is defective (Virtuous Quotes)
Acts of virtue ripen into habits; and the goodly and permanent result is the formation or establishment of a virtuous character (Virtuous Quotes)
Nothing is truly infamous, but what is wicked; and therefore shame can never disturb an innocent and virtuous mind (Virtuous Quotes)
The virtuous nothing fear but life with shame, and death’s a pleasant road that leads to fame (Virtuous Quotes)
The sound and proper exercise of the imagination may be made to contribute to the cultivation of all that is virtuous and estimable in the human character (Virtuous Quotes)
The corruption of the positively wicked is often less sad and fatal to society than the irregularities of a virtuous man who yields and falls (Virtuous Quotes)
Fear on guilt attends, and deeds of darkness; the virtuous breast ne’er knows it (Virtuous Quotes)
