Moral Approbation

Famous quotes containing the words moral and/or approbation:

    To be sure, a good work of art can and will have moral consequences, but to demand of the artists moral intentions, means ruining their craft.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Attention and respect give pleasure, however late, or however useless. But they are not useless, when they are late, it is reasonable to rejoice, as the day declines, to find that it has been spent with the approbation of mankind.
