Mental Virtue

Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or virtue:

“Hermann Goering, Joachim von Ribbentrop, Albert Speer, Walther Frank, Julius Streicher and Robert Ley did pass under my inspection and interrogation in 1945 but they only proved that National Socialism was a gangster interlude at a rather low order of mental capacity and with a surprisingly high incidence of alcoholism.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

“There is a good ear, in some men, that draws supplies to virtue out of very indifferent nutriment.”
