Famous quotes containing the words integrity and/or tests:
“To starve to death is a small thing, but to lose one’s integrity is a great one.”
—Chinese proverb.
“It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past.... Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
