Honesty Quotes
	Franklin P. Adams	There are plenty of good five-cent cigars in the country. The trouble is they cost a quarter. What this country needs is a good five-cent nickel.
	Dante Alighieri	Mankind is at its best when it is most free. This will be clear if we grasp the principle of liberty. We must recall that the basic principle is freedom of choice, which saying many have on their lips but few in their minds.
	American Bar Association	I shall not counsel or maintain any suit or proceeding which shall appear to me to be unjust, nor any defense except such as I believe to be honestly debatable under the law of the land.
	Walter Truett Anderson	Our lives improve only when we take chances -- and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves.
	Marcus Aurelius Antoninus	Never esteem anything as of advantage to you that will make you break your word or lose your self-respect.
	Aristotle	The least initial deviation from the truth is multiplied later a thousandfold.
	Sir Francis Bacon	The man who fears no truths has nothing to fear from lies.
	Doug Bandow	Gun control has proved to be a grievous failure, a means of disarming honest citizens without limiting firepower available to those who prey on the law-abiding. Attempting to use the legal system to punish the weapon rather than the person misusing the weapon is similarly doomed to fail.
	Günter Bechly	If a theory and its proponents stubbornly refuse falsification by an ever increasing body of substantial conflicting evidence, the theory degenerates into a textbook example of dogmatic pseudo-science. The neo-Darwinian theory of macroevolution has failed on all fronts, from mathematical feasibility, to theoretical plausibility and explanatory power, to empirical support.
	George Berkeley	He who says there is no such thing as an honest man, you may be sure is himself a knave.
	Ambrose Bierce	The hardest tumble a man can make is to fall over his own bluff.
	Josh Billings	Honesty is the rarest wealth anyone can possess, and yet all the honesty in the world ain't lawful tender for a loaf of bread.
	Jim Bishop	A good writer of history is a guy who is suspicious. Suspicion marks the real difference between the man who wants to write honest history and the one who’d rather write a good story.
	Bosnian Proverb	Who lies for you will lie against you.
	Merry Browne	The elegance of honesty needs no adornment.
	Buddha
	Robert Burns	Dare to be honest and fear no labor.
	Simon Cameron	An honest politician is one who, when he is bought, will stay bought.
	Albert Camus	Integrity has no need of rules.
	Orson Scott Card	It is time for our school systems to stop accepting the gospel of that false religion and start doing their due diligence. Our children should be taught about the demonstrable solar cycles; and the whole human-caused Global Warming theory, along with the Hockey Stick Hoax, should be taught only as another example, after Piltdown Man and pre-Copernican theories of planetary movement, of how science can be corrupted when ideology gets ahead of the data.
	Thomas Carlyle	Make yourself an honest man, and then you may be sure there is one less rascal in the world.
	Lewis Carroll	When I use a word...it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less....The question is...which is to be master -- that's all.
	Jimmy Carter	If you fear making anyone mad, then you ultimately probe for the lowest common denominator of human achievement.
	Helena Cassadine	Ah yes, truth. Funny how everyone is always asking for it but when they get it they don't believe it because it's not the truth they want to hear.
	Chilon of Sparta	Prefer a loss to a dishonest gain; for the one is painful but once, but the other for one's whole life.
	Confucius	If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone; if this remains undone, morals and art will deteriorate; if justice goes astray, the people will stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything.
	Noel Coward	It is discouraging to think how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit.
	Clarence S. Darrow	The law does not pretend to punish everything that is dishonest. That would seriously interfere with business.
	Elmer Davis	This nation was conceived in liberty and dedicated to the principle – among others – that honest men may honestly disagree; that if they all say what they think, a majority of the people will be able to distinguish truth from error; that in the competition of the marketplace of ideas, the sounder ideas will in the long run win out.
	Charles De Gaulle	Since a politician never believes what he says, he is quite surprised to be taken at his word.
	Alexis de Tocqueville	Where are we then? The religionists are the enemies of liberty, and the friends of liberty attack religion; the high-minded and the noble advocate subjection, and the meanest and most servile minds preach independence; honest and enlightened citizens are opposed to all progress, whilst men without patriotism and without principles are the apostles of civilization and intelligence. Has such been the fate of the centuries which have preceded our own? and has man always inhabited a world like the present, where nothing is linked together, where virtue is without genius, and genius without honor; where the love of order is confounded with a taste for oppression, and the holy rites of freedom with a taste for law; where the light thrown by conscience on human actions is dim, and where nothing seems to be any longer forbidden or allowed, honorable or shameful, false or true?
	Dick Cavett	It’s a rare person who wants to hear what he doesn’t want to hear.
	Charles Dickens	I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Don´t trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance any day in the week, if anything is to be got by it.
	Rabbi Wayne Dosick	The reality is, if we tell the truth, we only have to tell the truth once. If you lie, you have to keep lying forever.
	Fyodor Dostoyevsky	A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying to others and to yourself.
	Frederick Douglass	We may explain success mainly by one word and that word is WORK! WORK!! WORK!!! WORK!!!! Not transient and fitful effort, but patient, enduring, honest, unremitting, and indefatigable work, into which the whole heart is put.
	Frederick Douglass	The life of the nation is secure only while the nation is honest, truthful, and virtuous.
	John Dryden	Of all the tyrannies on human kind / the worst is that which persecutes the mind.
	John Dryden	Ill habits gather by unseen degrees -- As brooks make rivers, rivers run to seas.
	Will Durant	To speak ill of others is a dishonest way of praising ourselves.
	Albert Einstein	Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.
	Dwight D. Eisenhower	Here in America we are descended in blood and in spirit from revolutionists and rebels -- men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine. As their heirs, we may never confuse honest dissent with disloyal subversion.
	Ralph Waldo Emerson	The highest compact we can make with our fellow is - "Let there be truth between us two forevermore."
	Ralph Waldo Emerson	Nothing astonishes men so much as common sense and plain dealing.
	Quintus Ennius	That is true liberty, which bears a pure and firm breast.
	Stephanie Ericsson	When somebody lies, somebody loses.
	Abraham Flexner	We must not overlook the role that extremists play. They are the gadflies that keep society from being too complacent.
	Benjamin Franklin	But what madness must it be to run in debt for these superfluities! We are offered, by the terms of this vendue, six months' credit; and that perhaps has induced some of us to attend it, because we cannot spare the ready money, and hope now to be fine without it. But, ah, think what you do when you run in debt; you give to another power over your liberty. If you cannot pay at the time, you will be ashamed to see your creditor; you will be in fear when you speak to him, you will make poor pitiful sneaking excuses, and by degrees come to lose you veracity, and sink into base downright lying; for, as Poor Richard says, the second vice is lying, the first is running in debt. And again to the same purpose, lying rides upon debt's back.
	Benjamin Franklin	Finally, there seem to be but three Ways for a Nation to acquire Wealth. The first is by War as the Romans did in plundering their conquered Neighbours. This is Robbery. The second by Commerce which is generally Cheating. The third by Agriculture the only honest Way; wherein Man receives a real Increase of the Seed thrown into the Ground, in a kind of continual Miracle wrought by the Hand of God in his favour, as a Reward for his innocent Life, and virtuous Industry.
