Quotations for ethical

Prudence is one of the virtues which were called cardinal by the ancient ethical writers. [ William Fleming ]

Experience is of no ethical value, it is simply the name we give our mistakes. It demonstrates that the future will be the same as the past. [ Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Grey ]
