A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon this world.

Summary

This quote suggests that ethics play a crucial role in defining human behavior and distinguishing people from savage animals. It implies that a person who lacks ethical principles and moral values behaves in an untamed manner, causing chaos and harm in the world. Ethics are seen as a necessary framework for restraining human impulses, promoting social order, and aligning actions with higher principles that guide a civilized society. Without ethics, individuals may act solely based on self-interest and disregard the well-being of others, leading to a state of lawlessness and creating a hostile environment.
