Truth is sacred; and if you tell the truth too often nobody will believe it.
There is a certain kind of morality which is even more alien to good and evil than amorality is.
Morality is temporary, wisdom is permanent.
A person may be qualified to do greater good to mankind and become more beneficial to the world, by morality without faith than by faith without morality.
There must be sophistry in all this; but the condition of a slave confuses all principles of morality, and, in fact, renders the practice of them impossible.
Fear is the mother of morality.
What is so bad about big government? My indictment of big government is that it is bad because it attacks liberty, prosperity, progress, harmony, and morality. Thanks to big government, we have significantly less of all of those good things than we would if we had been able to keep government right-sized. Big government is cancerous. Like a cancer, it hurts the body and tends to spread, doing more and more harm as it grows. It is time for some radical surgery.
Morality has nothing to do with sports. Bad people can be good at sports and good people can be bad at sports.
Action is the only reality; not only reality, but morality as well.
Without civic morality communities perish; without personal morality their survival has no value.
Do not open your mouth to tell me that your mind has convinced you of your right to force my mind. Force and mind are opposites. Morality ends where a gun begins.
The science of morality is about maximizing psychological and social health. It's really no more inflammatory than that.
The assumption that animals are without rights, and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance, is a positively outrageous example of Western crudity and barbarity. Universal compassion is the only guarantee of morality.

I just think people should find the music that helps them through the day and enjoy that. I've never felt like, if somebody does or doesn't like what I'm doing, it's a morality issue
Morality and legality have nothing to do with one another.
Morality binds and blinds. It binds us into teams … but thereby makes us go blind to objective reality.
We can hardly say that the Pharisees had an accurate ‘knowledge’ of man when they pointed to the sins (the real sins) of publicans and sinners. This judgment, which separated knowledge of man from self-knowledge, was as nothing in God’s eyes. The Jew did not have a better understanding because he was able to judge the heathen. In the sphere of abstract morality this could possibly be said, but this is not Biblical morality - O man, who judgest others!
See, when I smoked pot it was illegal, but not immoral. Now, it is illegal AND immoral. The law didn't change, only the morality… That's why you get to go to jail and I don't.
There are many religions, but there is only one morality.
