Possibly mentioned further back in the thread but one of my favorites of all time is:

"Be the change that you wish to see in the world." - Mahatma Gandhi

 

Some people argue that he never exactly said this, but it is the message conveyed that is important and very much reflects what he believed. In other words, don't expect others to do what is right. Do what is right yourself. It is the greatest weapon against hypocrisy and the most powerful means of changing the world. One person at a time. It also means leading by example.

Exchange from Lady Windermere's Fan by Oscar Wilde.

 

"Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost."

 

Speech from the Great Dictator by Charlie Chaplin.
