Promise me that when I die only my friends shall stand about my coffin, and no inquisitive crowd. See that no priest or anyone else utter falsehoods at my graveside, when I can no longer protect myself; and let me descend into my tomb as an honest pagan.
Friedrich Nietzsche – Death, Honesty
Confidence in others’ honesty is no light testimony of one’s own integrity.
Michel de Montaigne – Honesty
We must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy.
George Bernard Shaw – Honesty, Children
You must not suppose, because I am a man of letters, that I never tried to earn an honest living.
George Bernard Shaw – Honesty
Make yourself an honest man, and then you may be sure that there is one less scoundrel in the world.
