Maybe he's got a plan for proving that he was a victim of unethical research practices. Who knows? I can't begin to guess his objectives but I can promise you that there is nothing you or I or modern para-pharmaceuticals can do for him. We can't fix the monsters. ~ Jayne Ann Krentz
Unethical quotes by Jayne Ann Krentz
Many family planning clinics and - and programs that service women have refused now to take women's - United State's money because they feel that it would be unethical, and it could injure their clients even more, their patients even more. That has to be changed. ~ Eleanor Smeal
Unethical quotes by Eleanor Smeal
Reality is negotiable. Outside of science and law, all rules can be bent or broken, and it doesn't require being unethical. ~ Tim Ferriss
Unethical quotes by Tim Ferriss
Why does Lewis Black have so much hatred for goodness? I do not know. Because I am not a trained psychologist, I think it would be unethical for me to attempt to analyze him. But based upon his feelings regarding candy corn, I think it is safe to assume that he hates freedom, hates himself, and wants to fuck his mother. ~ Michael Ian Black
Unethical quotes by Michael Ian Black
How little our side of the industry did to move its business to the more ethical firms and to make a fuss about conflicted or unethical behavior. Had a number of us moved our business, we might have slowed or even stopped the 30-year slide in conflicted, unethical behavior that we have experienced. I, for one, regret the modest nature of our moves. We all could have done more. We have tolerated a pretty nasty decline in standards. Shame on us. ~ Jeremy Grantham
Unethical quotes by Jeremy Grantham
One thing is to have the protection of human rights for homosexuals and quite something else is this promotion of indecency. It would be immoral and unethical to deny the homosexuals their human rights. But it is also immoral to consider disorders as normal. None of these deviances are biological. They are acquired by fantasizing about them. ~ Ali Sina
Unethical quotes by Ali Sina
Standing with the poor means walking away from unethical leaders, even when their companies are 'succeeding.' ~ Jacqueline Novogratz
Unethical quotes by Jacqueline Novogratz
Forget your environmental footprint. Think about your ethical footprint. What good is it to build a zero-carbon, energy efficient complex, when the labor producing this architectural gem is unethical at best? ~ Cameron Sinclair
Unethical quotes by Cameron Sinclair
Marketing isn't sleazy car salesman tactics.
Marketing isn't tricking people into buying.
Marketing isn't unethical.
Marketing isn't intrusive self-promotion.
Marketing is two things: (1) creating lasting connections with people, through (2) a focus on being relentlessly helpful. ~ Tim Grahl
Unethical quotes by Tim Grahl
Harris: Yes. In fact, self-deception might have paid evolutionary dividends in other ways. Robert Trivers argues, for instance, that people who can believe their own lies turn out to be the best liars of all - and an ability to deceive rivals has obvious advantages in the state of nature. Now, clearly many things may have been adaptive for our ancestors - such as tribal warfare, rape, xenophobia - that we now deem unethical and would never want to defend. But I'm wondering if you see any possibility that a social system that maximizes truth-telling could be one that fails to maximize the well-being of all participants. Is it possible that some measure of deception is good for us? ~ Sam Harris
Unethical quotes by Sam Harris
Business is an establishment that gives you the legal, even though unethical, right to screw the naive-right, left, and in the middle. ~ W.C. Fields
Unethical quotes by W.C. Fields
Hey, Dad, if I needed to check someone's background, would you be able to do that for me?"
"That's a little unethical, Liv." John smoothed his mustache. "Is this about a boy?"
Livia cringed. "Yeah, it is."
"Then absolutely. I'd be happy to. ~ Debra Anastasia
Unethical quotes by Debra Anastasia
Indeed, the researchers found that wide-faced men perceived themselves as powerful, and this contributed to their unethical behavior. ~ Matthew Hertenstein
Unethical quotes by Matthew Hertenstein
It is unethical for any man to tax another man's home to fund his social agenda. Friends don't do that, your enemies will. ~ John Taft
Unethical quotes by John Taft
He finessed his way through it all, playing the "I don't recall" game. He played the same game when asked about how Betty and UD officers had inserted Betty's name on their official visitors' log when it was Monica who actually visited, so as not to betray the president. It was yet another obvious lie on his part. I knew that game. Everyone with eyes could see it. He never recalled how she came to him with letters or papers. There was a back-and-forth on how the Clintons had garnered a lawyer for Monica so she could obfuscate matters and not implicate the president in his defense in Paula Jones's civil sexual harassment case. They discussed how unethical that was, and that's when the president had the nerve to blame the debacle on the information's getting leaked, not that it actually happened. Finally it came down to blaming Monica. ~ Gary J. Byrne
Unethical quotes by Gary J. Byrne
From a legal perspective, illegal communication
behavior also is unethical, but that which is not specifically illegal is ethical. In ~ Charles U. Larson
Unethical quotes by Charles U. Larson
If a country has a fascist leader, this is a great horror for that country; but there is much greater horror: The existence of ignorant and unethical masses who support that primitive leader! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Unethical quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
I'm very, very pleased to be cleared of any legal wrongdoing ... any hint of any kind of unethical activity there. Very pleased to be cleared of any of that. ~ Sarah Palin
Unethical quotes by Sarah Palin
For women especially, virginity has become the easy answer- the morality quick fix. You can be vapid, stupid, and unethical, but so long as you've never had sex, you're a "good" (i.e. "moral) girl and therefore worthy of praise. ~ Jessica Valenti
Unethical quotes by Jessica Valenti
We have it all arranged in our minds, and the less often we see a particular person the more satisfying it is to check how obediently he conforms to our notion of him every time we hear of him. Any deviation in the fates we have ordained would strike us as not only anomalous but unethical. We would prefer not to have known our neighbor, the retired hot-dog stand operator, if it turns out he has just produced the greatest book of poetry his age has seen. ~ Vladimir Nabokov
Unethical quotes by Vladimir Nabokov
In Shari'ah, as noted above, the obligation is not just to do ethical deeds and refrain from unethical deeds; the obligation is to testify justly for God against evil, even if it is against oneself and loved ones. This is a critical foundation for our covenant with God and for inheriting the earth and continuing on God's path. ~ Khaled Abou El Fadl
Unethical quotes by Khaled Abou El Fadl
I will say that again in a different way: the persistent unethical and ignorant emphasis on secrecy and on making decisions for partisan advantage or to pay off campaign contributors and select insiders is not sustainable. We the People have an opportunity to embrace this manifesto of Open-Source Everything and bury 'rule of secrecy.' This is why I am optimistic about the future. ~ Robert David Steele
Unethical quotes by Robert David Steele
We now know that slavery was indefensible, that segregation was bad, that we should not have allowed eugenicists to forcibly sterilize sixty thousand people for being 'defective,' that Japanese internment was a ghastly breach of everything that America is supposed to be, that lynching 'uppity' non-whites is unquestionably evil, that sending Jews who had managed to escape Hitler's genocide back to Germany was an appallingly unethical thing to do. All of those things happened because people were persuaded by demagoguery; but, had they seen it as demagoguery, they wouldn't have been persuaded. So, demagoguery works when (and because) we don't recognize it as such. ~ Patricia Roberts-Miller
Unethical quotes by Patricia Roberts-Miller
She licked her parched lips, moistening them, preparing them. "You could lose your job."
"You could be expelled."
"It's unethical."
"Dangerous."
His mouth hovered only millimeters over hers. "We doing this?"
She hooked her arms around his neck. "God yes. ~ Shelly Bell
Unethical quotes by Shelly Bell
So why in the world would anyone support the unethical, failed use of embryonic stem cells instead of the ethical, successful use of adult stem cells? Because they do not know the difference. ~ Virginia Foxx
Unethical quotes by Virginia Foxx
An ethical atheist is infinitely more valuable than an unethical pious! What matters is whether you are ethical or not; your beliefs are utterly trivial beside this matter! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Unethical quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
change was viewed everywhere as being unethical and ruinous ~ Nietzche
Unethical quotes by Nietzche
This is who he is. I don't like it any better than any of you do, but frankly he can't help that it's so easy for him to do these things. It's a talent--an unethical one, maybe. But it's who he is. It's why none of us will ever want for anything. You can't vilify him for that. ~ Meredith Wild
Unethical quotes by Meredith Wild
Good relentlessly calls us to accountability, abjectly refusing to hand us free passes for poor choices and unethical decisions. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Unethical quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
The Capitalist system with its exploitation of those who are economically weak, with its robbery of the workers labour power, with its unethical way of appraising human beings by the number of things and the amount of money he possesses, instead of by their internal value and their achievements, must be replaced by a new and just economic system, in a word by German Socialism. ~ Gregor Strasser
Unethical quotes by Gregor Strasser
In the year since we brought things into the open with a clean breath of fresh air at City Hall, we have learned about corrupt spending practices and unethical conflicts of interest that waste your money ... and keep Dallas from being the great city of our dreams. ~ Laura Miller
Unethical quotes by Laura Miller
Take for example job applications. In the 21st century the decision wherever to hire somebody for a job while increasingly be made by algorithms. We cannot rely on the machines to set the relevant ethical standards, humans will still need to do that, but once we decide on an ethical standard in the job market, that it is wrong to discriminate against blacks or against women for example, we can rely on machines to implement and maintain these standards better than humans. A human manager may know and even agree that is unethical to discriminate against blacks and women but then when a black woman applies for a job the manager subconsciously discriminate against her and decides not to hire her. If we allow a computer to evaluate job applications and program computers to completely ignore race and gender we can be certain that the computer will indeed ignore these factors because computers do not have a subconscious. Of course it won't be easy to write code for evaluating job applications and there is always the danger that the engineers will somehow program their own subconscious biases into the software, yet once we discover such mistakes it would probably be far easier to debug the software than to get rid humans of their racist and misogynist biases. ~ Yuval Noah Harari
Unethical quotes by Yuval Noah Harari
Where defining foreign policy as 'ethical' went wrong was that it implied that all decisions would be exclusive in every respect of any dealings with unethical regimes. ~ William Hague
Unethical quotes by William Hague
I think "immoral" is probably the wrong word to use ... I prefer the word "unethical." ~ Ivan Boesky
Unethical quotes by Ivan Boesky
The ninth rule of the ethics of means and ends is that any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical. ~ Saul Alinsky
Unethical quotes by Saul Alinsky
Bringing a child into the world without its consent seems unethical. Leaving the womb just seems insane. The womb is nirvana. It's tripping in an eternal orb outside the space-time continuum. It's a warm, wet rave at the center of the earth, but you're the only raver. There's no weird New Age guide. There's no shitty techno. There's only you and the infinite. ~ Melissa Broder
Unethical quotes by Melissa Broder
I ended your experiment. Because you're not a scientist. You're a monster. I'm not leaving any of them at your mercy. ~ Rachel Caine
Unethical quotes by Rachel Caine
Satan uses any means, ethical or unethical, to distract us from trusting in God, drawing us away to trust in ourselves by moving us into fear, into anger, into pride. ~ J.P. Moreland
Unethical quotes by J.P. Moreland
Everything we get from whales can be obtained without cruelty. Causing suffering to innocent beings without an extremely weighty reason for doing so is wrong, and hence whaling is unethical. ~ Peter Singer
Unethical quotes by Peter Singer
It struck me then, for the first time, how unethical anxiety is, how it voids the reality of other people by conscripting them as palliatives for your own fear. ~ Adam Haslett
Unethical quotes by Adam Haslett
How we interact in our world that we inhabit determines how much happiness human beings enjoy. The ego guides human beings in performing their practical activities, and egotistical utility in turn motivates human behavior. An inflated ego can cause human beings to live in a corrupt and unethical manner that is hostile to other humans and the environment. A person's passions can imprison them. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Unethical quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
A giant that became the giant through unethical ways is undoubtedly the smallest dwarf ever! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Unethical quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
The morality of a society is often dangerous and very unethical. ~ Debasish Mridha
Unethical quotes by Debasish Mridha
The imbecile always want to give suggestions in areas they know nothing about. There you have, arrogance and ignorance supporting one another and justifying the existence of both. You see it in the person that is single but insists in giving relationship advice to others, in the one that can barely keep his job but insists in giving suggestions about business and in those that insist that everyone should be more ethical but they, themselves, commit unethical actions. ~ Robin Sacredfire
Unethical quotes by Robin Sacredfire
From time immemorial, healthy people have held sick people hostage…I believe hostage-holding of the sick is immoral, fundamentally unethical, and needs to be stopped. ~ Hulda Regehr Clark
Unethical quotes by Hulda Regehr Clark
I have to say that one of the most important things Scientology has given me is the ability to keep my integrity together. I understand how people can get into unethical situations, and Scientology has always helped me keep my head clear and be in present time. ~ Danny Masterson
Unethical quotes by Danny Masterson
I approach every role with the same commitment because I'm being paid for it. To not do so would be unethical. ~ Anupam Kher
Unethical quotes by Anupam Kher
What shocked me, and what I wasn't prepared for, was just how brutal and how unethical some people can be in the NFL. I mean, there were some great people, but there were some real snakes, too. I was like, 'Holy cow!' But it made me a better person, and it got me ready for other things. ~ Terry Crews
Unethical quotes by Terry Crews
Think about it: if someone had found a way to manipulate human choice and free will – if someone actually had that kind of power – wouldn't it be a tad surprising if they then decided to share their secret with the masses in a book for $20? Not to mention how it would be just very slightly unethical. ~ Chris Murray
Unethical quotes by Chris     Murray
If you replace a soldier with a machine, you take away the possibility of the soldier or the policeman to not do something the state asks of him. He may think it's unethical to do it. A machine doesn't have that critical perspective. ~ Jose Padilha
Unethical quotes by Jose Padilha
Here is your government at work. A congressman from Colorado said he wants to draft a rule that would make it unethical to have a sexual relationship with an intern. Only Congress would need a rule to tell them cheating on their wives is not ethical. Don't we have that rule? I believe it's called the Sixth Commandment. ~ Jay Leno
Unethical quotes by Jay Leno
We all have done something unethical. ~ John C. Maxwell
Unethical quotes by John C. Maxwell
Jocks were pretty much exempt from the standards that bound the rest of us. Teachers and administrators humor them because it's in everyone's interests to coax them through school and get them out of the building. Since it's unethical to turn them loose on society, they get sent to college to be kept out of the mix until their frontal lobes develop more fully. As enticement they are given sports scholarships that will later amount to nothing, not even good health. ~ Hilary Thayer Hamann
Unethical quotes by Hilary Thayer Hamann
Karpov, Kasparov, Korchnoi have absolutely destroyed chess by their immoral, unethical, prearranged games. These guys are really the lowest dogs around, and if people knew the truth about them, they would be held in more contempt than Ben Johnson, the runner, and they're going to know the truth when I do this book! ~ Bobby Fischer
Unethical quotes by Bobby Fischer
Responsibility for the unethical experimentation lies first with the individual doctors, but also collectively with the medical profession as a whole, and with academia as a whole. ~ Colin A. Ross
Unethical quotes by Colin A. Ross
Flesh-eating by humans is unnecessary, irrational, anatomically unsound, unhealthy, unhygienic, uneconomic, unaesthetic, unkind and unethical. May I elaborate? ~ Helen And Scott Nearing
Unethical quotes by Helen And Scott Nearing
Money can extinguish intrinsic motivation, diminish performance, crush creativity, encourage unethical behavior, foster short-term thinking, and become addictive. ~ Daniel H. Pink
Unethical quotes by Daniel H. Pink
Clearly this business of treating minds, particularly this big business of treating young minds, has not policed itself, and has no incentive to put a stop to the kinds of fraudulent and unethical practices that are going on. ~ Patricia Schroeder
Unethical quotes by Patricia Schroeder
CARROTS AND STICKS: The Seven Deadly Flaws 1. They can extinguish intrinsic motivation. 2. They can diminish performance. 3. They can crush creativity. 4. They can crowd out good behavior. 5. They can encourage cheating, shortcuts, and unethical behavior. 6. They can become addictive. 7. They can foster short-term thinking. ~ Daniel H. Pink
Unethical quotes by Daniel H. Pink
The most ethical way to deal with an unethical situation would be to simply say: 'We did something wrong.' But nobody in a family like mine would ever respond like this. ~ Patti Davis
Unethical quotes by Patti Davis
Any attorney with a conscience always speaks the truth. An attorney can and should practice law in a scrupulous manner, but some dishonest attorneys disregard ethical mandates in order to win. Unethical attorneys shape their clients stories, which is a fancy way of assisting them tell a fib. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Unethical quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
Antigay activists have historically maintained that same-sex sexuality is a lifestyle choice that should be discouraged, deemed illegitimate, and even punished by the culture at large. In other words, if lesbian/gay/bisexual people to not have to be gay but are simply choosing a path of decadence and deviance, then the government should have no obligation to protect their civil rights or honor their relationships; to the contrary, the state should actively condemn same-sex sexuality and deny it legal and social recognition in order to discourage others from following that path.
Not surprisingly, advocates for gay/lesbian/bisexual rights see things differently. They counter that sexual orientation is not a matter of choice but an inborn trait that is much beyond an individual's control as skin or eye color. Accordingly, since gay/lesbian/bisexual individuals cannot choose to be heterosexual, it is unethical to discriminate against them and to deny legal recognition to same-sex relationships.
(...)
Perhaps instead of arguing that gay/lesbian/bisexual individuals deserve civil rights because they are powerless to change their behavior, we should affirm the fundamental rights of all people to determine their own emotional and sexual lives. ~ Lisa Diamond
Unethical quotes by Lisa Diamond
It is meaningless to rise while leaving others behind! It is also unethical and selfish! If you know the paths to rise, rise altogether with others! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Unethical quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
I liked him, but since his particular field of interest was Remote Suggestion
the skill of projecting thoughts into people's heads from a distance
I didn't know whether I actually liked him or he was just suggesting I like him, which was both creepy and unethical. In fact, the whole Remote Suggestion or "seeding" idea had been banned once it was discovered to be the key ingredient in promoting talent less boy bands, which had until then been something of a mystery. ~ Jasper Fforde
Unethical quotes by Jasper Fforde
All new technologies are feared at first. But that fear can't be allowed to hinder the search for potential in the unknown. Think about electricity, or the airplane or one of the first vaccines ever administered. Of course, they were a bit... scary at first. But think of how far they have brought civilization. There is nothing unethical going on here, just unadulterated pioneering. ~ S.L. Dunn
Unethical quotes by S.L. Dunn
An ethical action, like an unethical action, is usually analyzed by politicians purely in pragmatic terms. ~ Adam Michnik
Unethical quotes by Adam Michnik
The most unethical of all means is the non-use of any means. ~ Saul Alinsky
Unethical quotes by Saul Alinsky
Mr. Speaker, the goal of stem cell research should be to help our fellow human beings. The debate on this issue has, unfortunately, moved into dangerous unethical territory when perfectly moral alternatives exist. ~ Jim Ryun
Unethical quotes by Jim Ryun
Is it a thorny question of ethics? Or is it the sort of ethical question where the right choice is easy, but the unethical answer is too tempting? ~ Courtney Milan
Unethical quotes by Courtney Milan
I can look back and recognize the things I've done and said that were wrong: unethical, gratuitously hurtful, golden-rule-breaking, et cetera. Sometimes the wrongness was even clear at the time, though not as clear as it is now. But I did these things because I felt the pull of a trajectory, a sense of experience piling up the way it does as you turn the pages of a novel. I would be lying if I said I was a different person now. I am the same person. I would do it all again. ~ Emily Gould
Unethical quotes by Emily Gould
Goals may cause systematic problems for organizations due to narrowed focus, unethical behavior, increased risk taking, decreased cooperation, and decreased intrinsic motivation. Use care when applying goals in your organization. ~ Daniel H. Pink
Unethical quotes by Daniel H. Pink
Scientists surely have a special responsibility. It is their ideas that form the basis of new technology. They should not be indifferent to the fruits of their ideas. They should forgo experiments that are risky or unethical. ~ Martin Rees
Unethical quotes by Martin Rees
Let me be clear: as I have said repeatedly, I do not believe that all police officers are bad, nor do I believe that most are bad. But there must be a transparent, impartial and fair system to judge those that engage in criminal or unethical acts. ~ Al Sharpton
Unethical quotes by Al Sharpton
Ethics and power are separate. Ethics and morality. I think life would be miserable if there weren't some kind of code that people operated by, but history is full of many, many people who have gotten power by very unethical means, and people who were very ethical, who get no power, people who have the most brilliant, lovely, wonderful, nice intentions and bring about horrible things in the world because they don't know how to play the power game. ~ Robert Greene
Unethical quotes by Robert Greene
It's not that I think you're weaker, I know you are." He eyed me over his glass of milk. " I'm not trying to be obnoxious by saying that. You are weaker than us."
"Maybe physically but not mentally or .. morally." I countered.
"Morally?" He sounded confused.
"Yeah, like, I'm not going to tell the world about you guys to get money. And if I was captured by an Arum, I wouldn't bring them back to you all."
"Wouldn't you?"
Offended, I leaned back and folded my arms. "No. I wouldn't"
"Even if your life was threatened?" Disbelief colored his tone.
"Shaking my head, I laughed. "Just because I'm human doesn't mean I'm a coward or unethical. I'd never do anything that would put Dee in danger. Why would my life be more valuable than hers? Now yours ... debatable. But not Dee. ~ Jennifer L. Armentrout
Unethical quotes by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Unethical conduct is actually the conduct of destruction and fear; lies are told because one is afraid of the consequences should one tell the truth; thus, the liar is inevitably a coward, the coward is inevitably a liar. ~ L. Ron Hubbard
Unethical quotes by L. Ron Hubbard
Zoo is inhuman, it is unethical, and it is sick and stupid! Just because children and their ignorant parents go and have some fun there, slavery and torture cannot be justified! A society which has zoos does not deserve to be free! You deserve freedom only if you let others to be free, including animals! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Unethical quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
You can't flirt with me during a lockdown. My eyes narrow. It's unethical. ~ Cheyanne Young
Unethical quotes by Cheyanne Young
A Medical Affair is more than compelling fiction. It also is a powerful narrative about how relationships between physicians and patients can evolve in unethical, even unlawful ways. And as a medical ethicist and educator, I was delighted to see Strauss deftly weave important information about sexual misconduct by physicians into her story line."
David Orentlicher
Professor of law, medicine and ethics at Indiana University. Oversaw drafting of American Medical Association's ethical guidelines on intimate relationships between physicians and their patients ~ Anne McCarthy Strauss
Unethical quotes by Anne McCarthy Strauss
The first time I spoke publicly about the Stanford Prison Experiment, Stanley Milgram told me: Your study is going to take all the ethical heat off of my back. People are now going to say yours is the most unethical study ever, and not mine. ~ Philip Zimbardo
Unethical quotes by Philip Zimbardo
