Joseph Brodsky Quotes

I must keep some standard of principle fixed within myself.

I have values I believe in and certain things I stand for.

I'll never go against my morals.

I don't care about what brand you are, I'm concerned what type of man you are, what your principles and standards are.

Everything I do in my life is very instinctual and in the moment. If I'm attracted to something, that's it. If I have reservations, those don't change till they're resolved. My first impression is how I go.

One of the truest tests of integrity is its blunt refusal to be compromised.

All I can go on is my own value system.

A man of honour should never forget what he is because he sees what others are.

Principle is ever my motto, not expediency.

I am not that savvy, to be honest. I know what I believe in, and I try to follow people who do the same.

I always follow my heart.

You need to know your values.

What's right is right, and what's wrong is wrong. That's how I live my life.

My mum's got morals and principles, and I've been brought up with those ideas and beliefs.

I think more from my heart. My brains don't work as much.

I think my morals are perfectly... tight!

When I make decisions based on other circumstances, things don't necessarily go so well. So sometimes, even if something seems commercially tempting, I've learned that if it's not what's in your heart, it's probably not what you should do.

In the end, your integrity is all you've got.

I don't believe in princerple, But oh I du in interest.

Morality is truth in full bloom.

I think values are really, really important, but I also think that too many values are just words.

My moral standing is lying down.

I have always been determined to never compromise my faith or my principles. I always relied on my God-given talent when I took the field. So the idea of using PED's to enhance my performance was a line I chose not to cross.

My values are non-negotiable. And if it means not getting a role, it means not getting a role.
