Moral Standards

Famous quotes containing the words moral and/or standards:

    America is no place for an artist: to be an artist is to be a moral leper, an economic misfit, a social liability. A corn-fed hog enjoys a better life than a creative writer, painter, or musician. To be a rabbit is better still.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    To arrive at a just estimate of a renowned man’s character one must judge it by the standards of his time, not ours.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
