Great business ethics quotes cannot always be separated from guidelines for living an ethical life. The first quote I would like to share today, found on the Josephson Institute for Business Ethics Facebook page (you'll have to be a member of Facebook to open that link) , leads right into that belief....
"Nothing so conclusively proves a man's ability to lead others as what he does from day to day to lead himself." — Thomas J. Watson, founder of IBM (1874-1956) 1/10/13
"People of character do the right thing even if no one else does, not because they think it will change the world but because they refuse to be changed by the world."
-Michael Josephson
...and now three of my personal favorite ethics quotes...
"Positive change in your life will not be finished today, but it can start today" - unknown author
"Choose to think good thoughts, then act on them." -author unknown
"The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do" -Jack Kerouac
How about you? Do you have any favorite personal ethics quotes that could just as easily stand as positive business ethics quotes? It would be awesome if you would share them, if you do...
