Aristotle

Kenzaburō Ōe,
➤ A little thought and a little kindness are often worth more than a great deal of money.
John Ruskin
➤ You must make women count as much as men; you must have an equal standard of morals, and the only way to enforce that is through giving women political power so that you can get that equal moral standard registered in the laws of the country. It is the only way.
Emmeline Pankhurst
➤ Don't let your special character and values, the secret that you know and no one else does, the truth - don't let that get swallowed up by the great chewing complacency.
Aesop
➤ The moral virtues, then, are produced in us neither by nature nor against nature. Nature, indeed, prepares in us the ground for their reception, but their complete formation is the product of habit.
Aristotle
➤ The good man is the man who, no matter how morally unworthy he has been, is moving to become better.
John Dewey
➤ The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
