Richard Whately - Archbishop of Dublin

Honesty is the best policy; but he who is governed by that maxim is not an honest man.
Richard Whately
He that is not open to conviction, is not qualified for discussion.
Richard Whately
Every one wishes to have truth on his side, but it is not everyone sincerely wishes to be on the side of truth.
Richard Whately
To be always thinking about your manners is not the way to make them good; the very perfection of manners is not to think about yourself.

- Richard Whately - Archbishop of Dublin
