Every man is guilty of all the good he did not do.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Every guilty person is his own hangman.
No man knows the value of innocence and integrity but he who has lost them.
Very few men imprisoned for economic crimes or even crimes of passion against the oppressor feel that they are really guilty.
In law a man is guilty when he violates the rights of others. In ethics he is guilty if he only thinks of doing so.
There can be no doubt that the average man blames much more than he praises. His instinct is to blame. If he is satisfied he says nothing; if he is not, he most illogically kicks up a row.
The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.
Where all are guilty, no one is; confessions of collective guilt are the best possible safeguard against the discovery of culprits, and the very magnitude of the crime the best excuse for doing nothing.
There are many who are not guilty of doing anything wrong but very guilty of sins of omission - the things they neglect to do - the good things - the kind, thoughtful words, compassionate thoughts and hopeful attitudes they might have had towards their neighbor.
The guilty think all talk is of themselves.
Every man in his lifetime needs to thank his faults.
