To forgive is indeed the best form of self-interest since anger, resentment, and revenge are corrosive of that summum bonum, the greatest good. ~ Desmond Tutu
Bonum quotes by Desmond Tutu
A greater subject fitteth Faustus' wit: Bid Economy10 farewell, and11 Galen come, Seeing, Ubi desinit philosophus, ibi incipit medicus: Be a physician, Faustus; heap up gold, And be eterniz'd for some wondrous cure: Summum bonum medicinae sanitas, The end of physic is our body's health. ~ Christopher Marlowe
Bonum quotes by Christopher Marlowe
In fact, the summum bonum of his ethic, the earning of more and more money, combined with the strict avoidance of all spontaneous enjoyment of life, is above all completely devoid of any eudaemonistic, not to say hedonistic, admixture. It is thought of so purely as an end in itself, that from the point of view of the happiness of, or utility to, the single individual, it appears entirely transcendental and absolutely irrational. Man is dominated by the making of money, by acquisition as the ultimate purpose of his life. Economic acquisition is no longer subordinated to man as the means for the satisfaction of his material needs. This reversal of what we should call the natural relationship, so irrational from a naive point of view, is evidently as definitely a leading principle of capitalism as it is foreign to all peoples not under capitalistic influence. ~ Max Weber
Bonum quotes by Max Weber
Chapter VII
Of Simple Ideas of both Sensation and Reflection
1. Ideas of pleasure and pain.
There be other simple ideas which convey themselves into the mind by all the ways of sensation and reflection, viz. pleasure or delight,
and its opposite, pain, or uneasiness; power; existence; unity. ~ John Locke
Bonum quotes by John Locke
Concerning the dead nothing but good shall be spoken.
[Lat., De mortuis nil nisi bonum.] ~ Plutarch
Bonum quotes by Plutarch
Good works, because they must be forgotten instantly, can never become part of the world; they come and go,leaving no trace. They truly are not of this world. ~ Hannah Arendt
Bonum quotes by Hannah Arendt
The summum bonum of this [Puritan] ethic is the earning of more and more money combined with the strict avoidance of all enjoyment. ~ Max Weber
Bonum quotes by Max Weber
The perfect state, the summum bonum, is Play. In play, life expresses itself in its fullness. God's life is play. Adam fell when his play became serious business . ~ Jakob Bohme
Bonum quotes by Jakob Bohme
A Latin phrase says: De mortuis nil nisi bonum, Speak no ill of the dead. But it is better to say this way: Speak the truth of the living and speak the truth of the dead! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Bonum quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
Bonum est praestolari cum silentio salutare Dei. ("It is good to wait in silence for the salvation of God.") ~ Thomas Merton
Bonum quotes by Thomas Merton
If you insist that individual rights are the summum bonum, then the whole structure of society falls down. ~ B.F. Skinner
Bonum quotes by B.F. Skinner
Whatever the world thinks, he who hath not much meditated upon God, the human soul, and the summum bonum, may possibly make a thriving earthworm, but will most indubitably make a sorry patriot and a sorry statesman. ~ George Berkeley
Bonum quotes by George Berkeley
You might believe a good man easily, a great man with pleasure. -Bonum virum facile crederes, magnum libenter ~ Tacitus
Bonum quotes by Tacitus
According to the normal view, happiness is the summum bonum towards which we're naturally impelled by virtue - which in their definition means following one's natural impulses, as God meant us to do. But this includes obeying the instinct to be reasonable in our likes and dislikes. And reason also teaches us, first to love and reverence Almighty God, to Whom we owe our existence and our potential happiness, and secondly to get through life as comfortably and cheerfully as we can , and help all other members of our species to do so too. ~ Thomas Moore
Bonum quotes by Thomas Moore
First of all, the people has a right to passive resistance. The tyrannical law that is a law against reason, a law not directed to a common good, is not true law, but a depravity of law. Consequently it does not bind in conscience. This passive resistance becomes a duty when the tyrannical law demands something that is against the divine good ("bonum divinum"). A typical case would be a law to compel blasphemous adoration of the ruler as a quasi-divine being. ~ Heinrich A Rommen
Bonum quotes by Heinrich A Rommen
Infinite Love is a weapon of matchless potency. It is the 'summum bonum' of life. It is an attribute of the brave, in fact it is their all. It does not come within the each of the coward. It is no wooden of lifeless dogma but a living and life-giving. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Bonum quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
penitenziagite! watch out for the draco who cometh in futurum to gnaw your anima! death is super nos! pray the santo pater come to liberar nos a malo and all our sin! ha ha, you like this negromanzia de domini nostri jesu christi! et anco jois m'es dols e plazer m'es dolors...cave el diabolo! semper lying in wait for me in some angulum to snap at my heels. but salvatore is not stupidus! bonum monsasterium, and aqui refectorium and pray to dominum nostrum. and the resto is not worth merda. amen. no? ~ Umberto Eco
Bonum quotes by Umberto Eco
Thus to forgive is indeed the best form of self-interest since anger, resentment, and revenge are corrosive of that summum bonum, that greatest good, communal harmony that enhances the humanity and personhood of all in the community. ~ Desmond Tutu
Bonum quotes by Desmond Tutu
De mortuis nil nisi bonum (Speak naught but the good of the dead) ~ Latin Quote
Bonum quotes by Latin Quote
When we assume God to be a guiding principle well, sure enough, a god is usually characteristic of a certain system of thought or morality. For instance, take the Christian God, the summum bonum : God is love, love being the highest moral principle; and God is spirit, the spirit being the supreme idea of meaning. All our Christian moral concepts derive from such assumptions, and the supreme essence of all of them is what we call God. ~ Carl Jung
