Where do the evils like corruption arise from? It comes from the never-ending greed. The fight for corruption-free ethical society will have to be fought against this greed and replace it with 'what can I give' spirit.A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
Copy
I follow the rules, whatever they are, with respect to ethical obligations. And it's important in my view to do so.Ketanji Brown Jackson
Copy
When Zionism becomes co-extensive with Jewishness, Jewishness is pitted against the diversity that defines democracy, and if I may say so, betrays one of the most important ethical dimensions of the diasporic Jewish tradition: namely, the obligation of co-habitation with those different from ourselves.Judith Butler
Copy
No amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party. So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin.Aneurin Bevan
Copy
The only form of ethical persuasion that exists is when the goals of the persuader are aligned with the goals of the persuadee.Tristan Harris
Copy
What we think is ethical today, we may not have thought ethical five or 10 years ago. Cloning, stem cell research? However we feel about those things today, we may feel differently 10 years from now.Mary E. Pearson
Copy
Under no stretch of imagination can war be regarded as an ethical process; yet war, force, terror, and propaganda were the evolutionary means employed to weld the German people into a tribal whole.Arthur Keith
Copy
One of the reasons it's important for me to write about war is I really think that the concept of war, the specifics of war, the nature of war, the ethical ambiguities of war, are introduced too late to children. I think they can hear them, understand them, know about them, at a much younger age without being scared to death by the stories.Suzanne Collins
Copy
What I'm doing is writing stories about women who care about justice. They are women who think about the difference between right and wrong, what's legal and illegal, ethical and unethical, moral and immoral.Lisa Scottoline
Copy
As pro-life advocates continue to expose the scientific and ethical reality of abortion, we must also console the millions of Americans who carry the heavy burden of an enormous sin.Michael J. Knowles
Copy
The truth is, hardly any of us have ethical energy enough for more than one really inflexible point of honor.George Bernard Shaw
Copy
A big ethical question is what happens after people stop using the device. Does it degrade the environment? Could it have been designed so it would actually be good for the environment?Donald Norman
Copy
In books or films, it is desirable to have a climactic battle scene, but the world does not operate in those gross dramatic terms. In Vietnam, there was a general aimlessness, not just in the physical sense, but beyond that in the moral and ethical sense.Tim O'Brien
Copy
A man is truly ethical only when he obeys the compulsion to help all life which he is able to assist, and shrinks from injuring anything that lives.Albert Schweitzer
Copy
Since belief determines behavior, doesn't it make sense that we should be teaching ethical, moral values in every home and in every school in America?Zig Ziglar
Copy
For when it is the good that is under consideration, and the ethical object is predominant, truth must be considered more in reference to art than science, if, that is, unity is to be preserved in the work generally.Friedrich Schleiermacher
Copy
Morality in its noblest forms remains inexplicable unless one takes into account that power of growth in the human soul which has led generation after generation from lower religious and ethical standards to higher ones which often clash with worldly advantages.Ellen Key
Copy
I like to reveal people with some of the niceties of social behavior stripped away and the moral, ethical, and political issues are revealed.Edward Zwick
Copy
There is an ever-widening gap between what science allows and what we should actually do. There are many doors science can open that should be kept closed, on prudential or ethical grounds.Martin Rees
Copy
I have found little that is 'good' about human beings on the whole. In my experience most of them are trash, no matter whether they publicly subscribe to this or that ethical doctrine or to none at all. That is something that you cannot say aloud, or perhaps even think.Sigmund Freud
Copy
We must address, individually and collectively, moral and ethical issues raised by cutting-edge research in artificial intelligence and biotechnology, which will enable significant life extension, designer babies, and memory extraction.Klaus Schwab
Copy
Medical ethics is a fascinating discipline, as it deals with issues replete with complex philosophical, moral, and ethical considerations that are rarely black or white.Gad Saad
Copy
The real problem is not the existential threat of AI. Instead, it is in the development of ethical AI systems.Rana el Kaliouby
Copy
Like all technologies before it, artificial intelligence will reflect the values of its creators. So inclusivity matters - from who designs it to who sits on the company boards and which ethical perspectives are included.Kate Crawford
Copy
I don't have a set of tenets, but I live an ethical life. I practice a humility that presupposes there's a power greater than myself. And I always believe, don't inflict harm where it's not necessary.Michael J. Fox
Copy
The industrial revolution has tended to produce everywhere great urban masses that seem to be increasingly careless of ethical standards.Irving Babbitt
Copy
A man is ethical only when life, as such, is sacred to him, that of plants and animals as that of his fellow men, and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help.Albert Schweitzer
Copy
DNA sequencing opens vast ethical issues. We shall be able to know who has defective genes. What will it mean when we can be sure we're not all born equal? Worked out, the implications will scare a lot of people. Insurance companies will not want to cover those with a genetic predisposition to illness, for example. Here lurk myriad lawsuits.Gregory Benford
Copy
Louisiana's spicy, colorful politics have saddled our state with a reputation for tolerating lax ethical standards in government.John Kennedy
Copy
With a background in science I am extremely interested in the meeting ground of science, theology, and philosophy, especially the ethical questions at the border of science and theology.Alan Lightman
Copy
Contrary to what professional economists will typically tell you, economics is not a science. All economic theories have underlying political and ethical assumptions, which make it impossible to prove them right or wrong in the way we can with theories in physics or chemistry.Ha-Joon Chang
Copy
It didn't occur to me to go into something that didn't have an ethical return for me.Nell Newman
Copy
If you build that foundation, both the moral and the ethical foundation, as well as the business foundation, and the experience foundation, then the building won't crumble.Henry Kravis
Copy
I got taught a lot of great lessons by superhero comics as a kid about virtue and self-sacrifice and responsibility. And those were an important part of imprinting my DNA with ethical and moral values.Mark Waid
Copy
For me, the ethical arguments that resonate strongest are the ones that oppose the death penalty.Reid Hoffman
Copy
The invention of ethical and political doctrines, which blossomed into our own social sciences, is a product of times when things appeared manageable. The same goes for the criticism of those doctrines, though as a voice from the past, this criticism proved prophetic.Joseph Brodsky
Copy
The only hard-and-fast rules a Perot must operate under are getting a sound education; being honest and ethical in our business dealings; treating the people who work for us with respect and dignity; and, finally, a Perot cannot be afraid to take risks when appropriate.Ross Perot, Jr.
Copy
Companies with historical connections to slavery must take ethical responsibility by funding housing programs and grant programs that uplift underserved communities. This would ensure that these entities help restore the same communities that have been deprived of generational wealth due to the legacy of slavery.Al N. Green
Copy
If you don't have integrity, you have nothing. You can't buy it. You can have all the money in the world, but if you are not a moral and ethical person, you really have nothing.Henry Kravis
Copy
We've become, now, an oligarchy instead of a democracy. I think that's been the worst damage to the basic moral and ethical standards to the American political system that I've ever seen in my life.Jimmy Carter
Copy
Dataism is a new ethical system that says, yes, humans were special and important because up until now they were the most sophisticated data processing system in the universe, but this is no longer the case.Yuval Noah Harari
Copy
An act has no ethical quality whatever unless it be chosen out of several all equally possible.William James
Copy
If intelligent robots are our competitors and, to some extent, cerebrally alike - enough for us to discuss their ethical standing - why would they be above the law? Should they not contribute to our societies, too? And why would they be exempt from taxes?Jens Martin Skibsted
Copy
The intelligence community is governed by the same legal and ethical standards as the rest of American government and society, but an operational imperative is here, too. An intelligence community charged with global responsibilities cannot be successful without diversity of thought, culture and language.Michael Hayden
Copy
Obviously everyone wants to be successful, but I want to be looked back on as being very innovative, very trusted and ethical and ultimately making a big difference in the world.Sergey Brin
Copy
At the same time we are aware that our various religions and ethical traditions often offer very different bases for what is helpful and what is unhelpful for men and women, what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is evil.Hans Kung
Copy
Ethical decisions ensure that everyone's best interests are protected. When in doubt, don't.Harvey Mackay
Copy
We should aim for our children to be good people, and to live ethical lives that manifest concern for others as well as for themselves.Peter Singer
Copy
Corporate social responsibility is measured in terms of businesses improving conditions for their employees, shareholders, communities, and environment. But moral responsibility goes further, reflecting the need for corporations to address fundamental ethical issues such as inclusion, dignity, and equality.Klaus Schwab
Copy
Technology companies must constantly weigh ethical decisions: Where should Facebook set its privacy defaults, and should it tolerate glimpses of nudity? Should Twitter close accounts that seem sympathetic to terrorists? How should Google handle sex and violence, or defamatory articles?Nicholas Kristof
Copy
If I pick up a book with vampires on the cover, I want there to be vampires. If I pick up a book with spaceships on the cover, I want spaceships. If I see one with dragons, I want there to be dragons inside the book. Proper labeling. Ethical labeling.Margaret Atwood
Copy
I know how easy it is for one to stay well within moral, ethical, and legal bounds through the skillful use of words - and to thereby spin, sidestep, circumvent, or bend a truth completely out of shape. To that extent, we are all liars on numerous occasions.Sidney Poitier
Copy
If we are going to be able to create a new economic vision, companies will need to rethink every aspect of their operations; their bottom lines, ownership structures, demands on financial returns, how they raise capital. For example, an ethical company would say it should only take a fair share of the planet's resources and campaign on this.Tim Jackson
