Most contemporary fiction sucks. It's intellectually dishonest, often morally dishonest. It's cheap and easy. It pretends to be deep but is really quite shallow.

Dale Peck

Whenever people are being intellectually dishonest in debate, it is an implicit concession they have lost the fight

Barney Frank

In Aristotelian terms, the good leader must have ethos, pathos and logos. The ethos is his moral character, the source of his ability to persuade. The pathos is his ability to touch feelings to move people emotionally. The logos is his ability to give solid reasons for an action, to move people intellectually.

Mortimer Adler

John C. Calhoun

A small country cannot contend with a great; the few cannot contend with the many; the weak cannot contend with the strong

Authors use 'almost' to avoid stating an outright fact, as though there were something inauthentic, dishonest, unfinished, undecided or even unwholesome - some might say repulsive, tacky, snub-nosed, too direct - in qualifying anything as definitely a this or a that.

Andre Aciman

You have to be intellectually honest with yourself and others. In my judgment, all great investors are seekers of truth.

Ward Churchill

There is a quality even meaner than outright ugliness or disorder, and this meaner quality is the dishonest mask of pretended order, achieved by ignoring or suppressing the real order that is struggling to exist and to be served.
