Condone Quotes

Penn Jillette quote: "Once you've condoned faith in general, you've condoned any..."
Once you've condoned faith in general, you've condoned any crazy shit done because of faith. Penn Jillette
If on Judgement Day I were summoned by St. Peter to give testimony to the used-to-be sheriff's act of kindness, I would be unable to say anything in his behalf. His confidence that my uncle and every other Black man who heard of the Klan's coming ride would scurry under their houses to hide in chicken droppings was too humiliating to hear. Without waiting for Momma's thanks, he rode out of the yard, sure that things were as they should be and that he was a gentle squire, saving those... Maya Angelou
Cease being intimidated by the argument that a right action is impossible because it does not yield maximum profits, or that a wrong action is to be condoned because it pays. Aldo Leopold
Some of you rich men have to be taught that all the world cannot be bribed into condoning your offences." Sherlock Holmes, The Problem of Thor Bridge Arthur Conan Doyle
Love may, indeed, love the beloved when her beauty is lost: but not because it is lost. Love may forgive all infirmities and love still in spite of them: but Love cannot cease to will their removal. Love is more sensitive than hatred itself to every blemish in the belove? Of all powers he forgives most, but he condones least: he is pleased with little, but demands all. C. S. Lewis
Eudora Welty quote: "The novelist works neither to correct nor to condone, not at..."
The novelist works neither to correct nor to condone, not at all to comfort, but to make what's told alive. Eudora Welty
Margaret Atwood quote: "All of this was understood, and if not condoned, at least..."
All of this was understood, and if not condoned, at least pardoned. Margaret Atwood
To the everlasting credit of the people of District 12, not one person claps. Not even the ones holding betting slips, the ones who are usually beyond caring. Possibly because they know me from the Hob, or knew my father, or have encountered Prim, who no one could help loving. So instead of acknowledging applause, I stand there unmoving while they take part in the boldest form of dissent they can manage. Silence. Which says we do not agree. We do not condone. All of this is wrong. Suzanne Collins
Suzanne Collins quote: "the boldest form of dissent they can manage. Silence. Which..."
the boldest form of dissent they can manage. Silence. Which says we do not agree. We do not condone. All of this is wrong. Suzanne Collins
While God is not the author of evil and He never prompts or condones sin, nothing occurs without His sovereign oversight. Others may choose to do evil deeds and God's people may suffer in the short term, but He will transform the evil intentions of evil people into opportunities for the enrichment of those in His care. Charles R. Swindoll
Now that physics is proving the intelligence of the universe what are we to do about the stupidity of mankind? I include myself. I know that the earth is not flat but my feet are. I know that space is curved but my brain has been condoned by habit to grow in a straight line. What I call light is my own blend of darkness. What I call a view is my hand-painted trompe-l'oeil. I run after knowledge like a ferret down a ferret hole. My limitations, I call the boundaries of what can be known. I... Jeanette Winterson
The bottom line is this: Peace will come to Israel and the Middle East only when the Israeli government is willing to comply with international law, with the Roadmap for Peace, with official American policy, with the wishes of a majority of its own citizens--and honor its own previous commitments--by accepting its legal borders. All Arab neighbors must pledge to honor Israel's right to live in peace under these conditions. The United States is squandering international prestige and goodwill... Jimmy Carter
Our laws are a reflection of our culture. Our culture does not condone the torture of innocent and defenseless creatures. And we as a society believe all God's creatures should be treated humanely. Joe Moore
Carlos Fuentes quote: "The United States condoned dictatorships in Latin America for..."
The United States condoned dictatorships in Latin America for much of the 20th century. Carlos Fuentes
Science without respect for human life is degrading to us all and reflects a hollow and deceptive philosophy, a philosophy that we as a people should never condone. Nathan Deal
