Famous quotes containing the word morally:
“The ideal of the self-sufficient American family is a myth, dangerous because most families, especially affluent families, do in fact make use of a range of services to survive. Families needing one or another kind of help are not morally deficient; most families do need assistance at one time or another.”
—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
“In a thousand apparently humble ways men busy themselves to make some right take the place of some wrong,—if it is only to make a better paste blacking,—and they are themselves so much the better morally for it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We grow with years more fragile in body, but morally stouter, and can throw off the chill of a bad conscience almost at once.”
—Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)
