“For as the interposition of a rivulet, however small, will occasion the line of the phalanx to fluctuate, so any trifling disagreement will be the cause of seditions; but they will not so soon flow from anything else as from the disagreement between virtue and vice, and next to that between poverty and riches.”
Aristotle
“Search others for their virtues, thy self for thy vices”
Benjamin Franklin
“Virtue practiced to be seen is not real virtue; vice which fears to be seen is real vice”
Chinese Proverbs
“THE POOR AND THE SUBJECT CALLED "POVERTY" IS FILTH TO THE RICH AND THE SUBJECT CALLED "RICHES", BUT CLEANLINESS IS THE ONLY MARK OF ACCEPTANCE.”
“Hypocrisy is a fashionable vice, and all fashionable vices pass for virtue”
Moliere
“(Sir Stafford Cripps) has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire”
Winston Churchill
“Disobedience, the rarest and most courageous of the virtues, is seldom distinguished from neglect, the laziest and commonest of the vices.”
George Bernard Shaw
