Hello all and welcome to Quotable Sunday. Today my quotes are all about integrity, some have it some don’t.
“Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity.†W. Clement Stone
“Integrity is doing the right thing, even if nobody is watching”
If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don’t have integrity, nothing else matters. ~Alan Simpson
Character is much easier kept than recovered. ~Thomas Paine
Don’t try to be different. Just be good. To be good is different enough. ~Arthur Freed
You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him. ~James D. Miles
A man has to live with himself, and he should see to it that he always has good company. ~Charles Evans Hughes
Let us be grateful to the mirror for revealing to us our appearance only. ~Samuel Butler, Erewhon

The only correct actions are those that demand no explanation and no apology. ~Red Auerbach
The trouble with most of us is that we would rather be ruined by praise than saved by criticism. ~Norman Vincent Peale
My what powerful quotes. Â Do you have integrity? Â I know I try every day to make sure I do, it’s definitely not always easy in some situations but I can hold my head high and say that I do most of the time and the times I didn’t I can honestly say I regretted my actions, too bad the same can’t be said about all of humanity yes??
Now it’s your turn, link up your quote posts in the Mister Linky below and I promise to come check them out throughout the day!

Hi Toni!
Wonderful quotes. I love your selection. I particularly like the second one. I strive for integrity in all my actions and to be a good example for my kids. You are right; it’s not always easy, but always the better path.
Thanks for hosting. Have a great Sunday 😀

I also believe that integrity is something that is earned by the actions you show so I have preached to my children since they were young you are right there are those with it and those that would never have it
Good Morning Toni! Great quotes. I too had trouble picking a favorite, but I think it is this one

My favorite is: Don’t try to be different. Just be good. To be good is different enough. ~Arthur Freed
It speaks volumes. Over the last few months I’ve come to realize that I don’t need to go the way of the crowd. I’m my own person and I can do my own things. I live by what I teach my children. Live fully, but speak kindly. Treat others the way you wish to be treated. I think that’s a huge part of integrity.
Thanks Toni!

We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Kavanagh, 1849
People judge us harshly. There is less and less tolerance and compassion in this world as time goes by. Not only is it sad, it is very scary. What kind of world is my daughter going to have to live in with her children?

I love the quote by Red Auerbach. I think most people apologize way too often for things that do not need any explaining.
