“In times like these men should utter nothing for which they would not be willingly responsible through time and in eternity.”
Abraham Lincoln
“Set your expectations high; find men and women whose integrity and values you respect; get their agreement on a course of action; and give them your ultimate trust.”
John Akers
“A single lie destroys a whole reputation for integrity”
Baltasar Gracian
“Integrity is the first step to true greatness. Men love to praise, but are slow to practice it. To maintain it in high places costs self-denial; in all places it is liable to opposition, but its end is glorious, and the universe will yet do it homage.”
Charles Simmons
“You can't, in sound morals, condemn a man for taking care of his own integrity. It is his clear duty.”
Joseph Conrad
“Men of integrity, by their very existence, rekindle the belief that as a people we can live above the level of moral squalor. We need that belief; a cynical community is a corrupt community.”
John W. Gardner
“To stand in silence when they should be protesting makes cowards out of men”
