Morality Plays

Famous quotes containing the words morality and/or plays:

    All morality depends upon our sentiments; and when any action or quality of the mind pleases us after a certain manner we say it is virtuous; and when the neglect or nonperformance of it displeases us after a like manner, we say that we lie under an obligation to perform it.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    The real test of a man is not how well he plays the role he has invented for himself, but how well he plays the role that destiny assigned to him.
    Jan Patocka (1907–1977)
