If we put the emphasis upon the right things, if we live the life that is worth while and then fail, we will survive all disasters, we will out-live all misfortune. We should be so well balanced and symmetrical, that nothing which could ever happen could throw us off our center, so that no matter what misfortune should overtake us, there would still be a whole magnificent man or woman left after being stripped of everything else.
Marden, Orison Swett

8.
On this mounting the scaffold to be beheaded: I pray you Master Lieutenant, see me safely up, and for my coming down, let me shift for myself.

Fink, David Harold

Do not do what you would undo if caught.
Arendt, Leah

15.
Honesty is the best policy. If I lose mine honor, I lose myself.
Shakespeare, William

16.
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate now knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.
Nouwen, Henri

I thank God I am as honest as any man living that is an old man and no honester than I.
William Shakespeare

24.
Act in earnest and you will become earnest in all you do.
James, William

25.
No man is so exquisitely honest or upright in living, but that ten times in his life he might not lawfully be hanged.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

26.
When something that honest is said it usually needs a few minutes of silence to dissipate.
Pamela Ribon

27.
Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bear bad fruit.
Allen, James

28.
Without adversity a person hardly knows whether they are honest or not.
Fielding, Henry

29.
Each time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure.
Sugarman, Joseph

30.
Honesty pays, but it doesn't seem to pay enough to suit some people.
Kin Hubbard
