Integrity

We don’t pay a lot of attention to that wonderful and insightful section of the Bible called Proverbs. Maybe we should, given the pressures, anxieties and worries of our day. Proverbs 10:9…”He who walks in integrity walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out.” A good dose of integrity would not hurt the world today.

“The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it no real success is possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an office.” Dwight David Eisenhower

“Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless, and knowledge without integrity is dangerous and dreadful.” Samuel Johnson

“Image is what people think we are. Integrity is what we really are.” John C. Maxwell

“In looking for people to hire, look for three qualities: integrity, intelligence and energy. And if they don’t have the first, the other two will kill you.” Warren Buffett

“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, given him power.” Abraham Lincoln

God help us all to be people of righteous character and unquestioned integrity.
