“Quote Unquote”

November 6, 2015 § 2 Comments

“As for the education of our children is concerned I think they should be taught not the little virtues but the great ones. Not thrift but generosity and an indifference to money; not caution but courage and contempt for danger; not shrewdness but frankness and a love of truth; not tact but love for one’s neighbor and self-denial; not a desire for success but a desire to be and to know.”  —  Natalia Ginzburg

“To be able to practice five things everywhere under heaven constitutes perfect virtue — gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.”  —  Confucius

“The weakest of all weak things is a virtue which has not been tested in the fire.”  —  Mark Twain
