• Soy muy cínico. Eso es absolutamente lo que hace la policía. Pero ni siquiera hay que ser cínico. Quiero decir, los políticos ni siquiera fingen que están haciendo lo contrario. El problema es que la otra parte no grita a los cuatro vientos y dice: "Esto es inmoral, esto es esclavitud, os estáis beneficiando de la esclavitud humana".

• Muchos estadounidenses no quieren que personas que se comportan abiertamente como homosexuales sean socios en sus negocios, jefes de exploradores de sus hijos, profesores en las escuelas de sus hijos o huéspedes en sus casas. Lo ven como una forma de protegerse a sí mismos y a sus familias de un estilo de vida que consideran inmoral y destructivo.

• Fue mientras estudiaba filosofía cuando llegué a comprender. . . que no es signo de fortaleza moral o espiritual creer aquello para lo que no se tienen pruebas, ni a priori como en matemáticas, ni a posteriori como en ciencia. . . . Es una violación casi inmoral en su transgresión eludir las responsabilidades de la racionalidad.

• I'm trying to understand how do we tell lies to ourselves to justify what we've done and what are the consequences of those lies? But actually maybe I also recognize that in turning empathy into a practice for many years, by turning, by forcing myself to separate at some level the humanity of a human being from his or her actions and recognizing that sometimes, even the moral aspects of a human being can contribute to immoral behavior.

• Es inmoral ser padre irresponsablemente... Y no ayuda en nada cuando la televisión en horario de máxima audiencia, como "Murphy Brown", un personaje que se supone que representa a una mujer de éxito profesional de hoy en día, se burla de la importancia del padre al tener un hijo sola, y lo llama simplemente otra "elección de estilo de vida". El matrimonio es probablemente el mejor programa contra la pobreza que existe... Aunque nuestros líderes culturales de Hollywood, las cadenas de televisión y los periódicos nacionales se mofan sistemáticamente de [esos valores], creo que la mayoría de los presentes en esta sala sabemos que algunas cosas son buenas y otras son malas.

• The moral absolutes rest upon God's character. The moral commands He has given to men are an expression of His character. Men as created in His image are to live by choice on the basis of what God is. The standards of morality are determined by what conforms to His character, while those things which do not conform are immoral.

  Francis Schaeffer

• Una mente puede ser derrocada por las palabras; esa es la cuestión. ¿Qué le ocurre al cerebro de una persona que utiliza la pasiva, que escribe "No debe permitirse que se produzcan retrasos" en lugar de "Date prisa"? El usuario del verbo pasivo no quiere un universo en el que los agentes responsables realicen sus actos. ¿Lo veis? El mal lenguaje es, en última instancia, INMORAL.

• Soaking the rich would not only be profoundly immoral, it would drastically penalize the very virtues: thrift, business foresight, and investment, that have brought about our remarkable standard of living. It would truly be killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

• And a lot of Barack Obama's support people are angry, don't like this country, from Bill Ayers to Jeremiah Wright on down. They think this country was founded in an unjust and immoral way and it has been unjust and immoral since it was founded. And it's about time it changed, it's about time the little guy got his share because the little guy is only little because everything's been stolen from him by the big guys.

• One of the great triumphs of the nineteenth century was to limit the connotation of the word "immoral" in such a way that, for practical purposes, only those were immoral who drank too much or made too copious love. Those who indulged in any or all of the other deadly sins could look down in righteous indignation on the lascivious and the gluttonous.... In the name of all lechers and boozers I most solemnly protest against the invidious distinction made to our prejudice.

• En algún momento de la generación pasada nos volvimos menos propensos a objetar algo porque es inmoral y más propensos a objetar algo porque es insalubre o inseguro. Así, fumar es ahora un mal peor que seis de los Diez Mandamientos, y la palabra pecaminoso se asocia más comúnmente con el chocolate.

• Liberty, according to my metaphysics, is an intellectual quality, an attribute that belongs not to fate nor chance. Neither possesses it, neither is capable of it. There is nothing moral or immoral in the idea of it. The definition of it is a self-determining power in an intellectual agent. It implies thought and choice and power; it can elect between objects, indifferent in point of morality, neither morally good nor morally evil.

• ... statism systematically violates the rights of individuals and is, therefore, immoral. Because it suppresses the mind and violates men's rights, it thereby causes abysmal poverty and is utterly impractical.
