Quotes with integrity

  • Integrity is the first step to true greatness. Men love to praise, but are slow to practice it. To maintain it in high places costs self-denial; in all places it is liable to opposition, but its end is glorious, and the universe will yet do it homage.
  • It is no coincidence that while some major female artists have married, very few have borne children. The issue is not conservation of energy but imaginative integrity. Art is its own self-swelling, proof that the mind is greater than the body.
  • Live with integrity, respect the rights of other people, and follow your own bliss.
  • If love means that one person absorbs the other, then no real relationship exists any more. Love evaporates; there is nothing left to love. The integrity of self is gone.
  • Meditation requires courage. It requires the basic integrity, sincerity, respect towards your own being. At least don't deceive yourself.
