  5. A quotation from Einstein

    I salute the man who is going through life always helpful, knowing no fear, and to whom aggressiveness and resentment are alien. Such is the stuff of which the great moral leaders are made who proffer consolation to mankind in their self-created miseries.
     
    [Heil dem Manne, der stets helfend durchs Leben ging, keine Furcht kannte und dem jede Aggressivität und jedes Ressentiment fremd war! Von solchem Holz sind die Idealgestalten geschnitzt, die der Menschheit Trost bieten in den Situationen selbstgeschaffenen Leidens.]

    Albert Einstein (1879-1955) German-American physicist

  22. A quotation from Robert Ingersoll

       The superior man is the man that loves his fellow-man; the superior man is the useful man; the superior man is the kind man, the man who lifts up his down-trodden brothers; and the greater the load of human sorrow and human want you can get in your arms, the easier you can climb the great hill of fame. The superior man is the man who loves his fellow-man.
       And let me say right here, the good men, the superior men, the grand men are brothers the world over, no matter what their complexion may be; centuries may separate them, yet they are hand in hand; and all the good, and all the grand, and all the superior men, shoulder to shoulder, heart to heart, are fighting the great battle for the progress of mankind.

    Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator
    Speech (1876-10-20), “Hayes Campaign,” Exposition Building, Chicago

  27. A quotation from The Bible

    Lord, who may enter your Temple?
       Who may worship on Zion, your sacred hill?
    Those who obey God in everything
       and always do what is right,
    whose words are true and sincere,
       and who do not slander others.
    They do no wrong to their friends
       nor spread rumors about their neighbors.
    They despise those whom God rejects,
       but honor those who obey the Lord.
    They always do what they promise,
       no matter how much it may cost.
    They make loans without charging interest
       and cannot be bribed to testify against the innocent.
    Whoever does these things will always be secure.

  28. A quotation from The Bible

    Lord, who may enter your Temple?
       Who may worship on Zion, your sacred hill?
    Those who obey God in everything
       and always do what is right,
    whose words are true and sincere,
       and who do not slander others.
    They do no wrong to their friends
       nor spread rumors about their neighbors.
    They despise those whom God rejects,
       but honor those who obey the Lord.
    They always do what they promise,
       no matter how much it may cost.
    They make loans without charging interest
       and cannot be bribed to testify against the innocent.
    Whoever does these things will always be secure.

    MEDEA: O Zeus, why did you give men certain ways
       to recognize false gold, when there’s no mark,
       no token stamped on the human body,
       to indicate which men are worthless.
       
    [ΜΉΔΕΙΑ: ὦ Ζεῦ, τί δὴ χρυσοῦ μὲν ὃς κίβδηλος ᾖ
       τεκμήρι᾽ ἀνθρώποισιν ὤπασας σαφῆ,
       ἀνδρῶν δ᾽ ὅτῳ χρὴ τὸν κακὸν διειδέναι
       οὐδεὶς χαρακτὴρ ἐμπέφυκε σώματι;]

    We ought to beware of people who do not think it necessary to pretend that they are good and decent. Lack of hypocrisy in such things hints at a capacity for a most depraved ruthlessness.

  46. A quotation from Moliere

    DON LOUIS: No, no, birth is nothing where virtue is not. […] Know that a man of noble birth who leads an evil life is a monster in nature; virtue is the prime title of nobility; I care much less for the name a man signs than for the deeds he does; and I should feel more esteem for the son of a porter who was a true man, than for the son of a king who lived as you do.
     
    [Non, non, la naissance n’est rien où la vertu n’est pas. […] Apprenez enfin qu’un gentilhomme qui vit mal est un monstre dans la nature ; que la vertu est le premier titre de noblesse ; que je regarde bien moins au nom qu’on signe, qu’aux actions qu’on fait, et que je ferais plus d’état du fils d’un crocheteur, qui serait honnête homme, que du fils d’un monarque qui vivrait comme vous.]

    Molière (1622-1673) French playwright, actor [stage name for Jean-Baptiste Poquelin]
