Always do right - It will please many people, and amaze the rest.
Mark Twain
The world does not need more Christian literature. What it needs is more Christians writing good literature.
C.S. Lewis
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
Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.
J.K. Rowling
He who is upright in his way of life and free from sin.

A man should be upright, not be kept upright.
Marcus Aurelius
If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.
Blessed is the servant who loves his brother as much when he is sick and useless as when he is well and an be of service to him. And blessed is he who loves his brother as well when he is afar off as when he is by his side, and who would say nothing behind his back he might not, in love, say before his face.
Saint Francis of Assisi
Our words, our thoughts, and our feelings all contribute to the creation of our reality. Our word is a two-edged sword, it can create or it can destroy. To be impeccable is to create with conscious awareness and love. Ruiz also makes the point that our perceptions of others are merely reflections of ourselves. Therefore, to put another down or project negative words or energy towards another person, is to lash out at the other person because of our own insecurities. The human mind is fertile ground for the seeds that are our word. So plant the seeds of love, not fear. Judging, blaming, shaming, and especially gossiping create poison in ourselves and others. This agreement alone is enough to break all of your old agreements and change the dream of your life.
Don Miguel Ruiz, The Four Agreem
Your life works to the degree you keep your agreements.
Werner Erhard
Integrity is praised and then left out in the cold.
Juvenal
Keep true, never be ashamed of doing right; decide on what you think is right and stick to it.
George Eliot
Oh, Lizzy! do anything rather than marry without affection.
Jane Austen
I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.
Martin Luther
A task becomes a duty from the moment you suspect it to be an essential part of that integrity which alone entitles a man to assume responsibility.
Dag Hammarskjold
