But it seems plain that a man cannot be a legitimate object of moral praise or blame for an act unless in willing the act he is in some important sense a ‘free’ agent. Evidently free will in some sense, therefore, is a precondition of moral responsibility.~ C. Arthur Campbell Integrity has no need of rules.~ Albert Camus The great ideals of liberty and equality are preserved against the assaults of opportunism, the expediency of the passing hour, the erosion of small encroachments, the scorn and derision of those who have no patience with general principles.~ Justice Benjamin Cardozo All honor's wounds are self-inflicted.~ Andrew Carnegie The only freedom worth possessing is that which gives enlargement to a people's energy, intellect, and virtues.~ William Ellery Channing No more duty can be urged upon those who are entering the great theater of life than simple loyalty to their best convictions.~ Edwin Hubbel Chapin Tolerance is the virtue of a man without convictions.~ Gilbert Keith Chesterton Every human being has, like Socrates, an attendant spirit; and wise are they who obey its signals. If it does not always tell us what to do, it always cautions us what not to do.~ Lydia M. Child Prefer a loss to a dishonest gain; for the one is painful but once, but the other for one's whole life.~ Chilon of Sparta If you stand straight, do not fear a crooked shadow.~ Chinese Proverb Laws control the lesser man. Right conduct controls the greater one.~ Chinese Proverb Moral cowardice and intellectual corruption are the natural concomitants of unchallenged privilege.~ Noam Chomsky I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.~ Sir Winston Churchill Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.~ Sir Winston Churchill Never give in. Never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.~ Sir Winston Churchill Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees all others.~ Sir Winston Churchill Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities because it has been said it is the quality which guarantees all others.~ Sir Winston Churchill The inherent vice of capitalism is the uneven division of blessings, while the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal division of misery.~ Sir Winston Churchill Previous 20 quotes Next 20 quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
