Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.
Buddha
Quote binge tonight. It seems people often need to be reminded about truth and honesty. Of course those that are evil never get it but it helps me to post -makes me think I am doing something – so I persevere. Love all these quotes.
Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.
Thomas Jefferson
False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul with evil.
Socrates
The trite saying that honesty is the best policy has met with the just criticism that honesty is not policy. The real honest man is honest from conviction of what is right, not from policy.
Robert E. Lee
Good can imagine Evil; but Evil cannot imagine Good.
Evil is unspectacular and always human, and shares our bed and eats at our own table.
I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Don’t trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance any day in the week, if there is anything to be got by it.
Charles Dickens
Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully.
Richard Bach
Parentage is a very important profession, but no test of fitness for it is ever imposed in the interest of the children.
George Bernard Shaw
The mother’s heart is the child’s schoolroom.
Henry Ward Beecher
When motherhood becomes the fruit of a deep yearning, not the result of ignorance or accident, its children will become the foundation of a new race.
Margaret Sanger
Most American children suffer too much mother and too little father.
Gloria Steinem
