Honesty is telling the truth to others, whereas INTEGRITY is telling the truth to yourself!

No one will question your Integrity, if your INTEGRITY is not questionable!

Speak with honesty, think with sincerity and act with INTEGRITY!

INTEGRITY is the moral courage to make my actions consistent with my knowledge of Right and Wrong!

Better is a poor man who walks in his INTEGRITY than a rich man who is crooked in his ways!

Nothing is last sacred but the INTEGRITY of your own mind!

INTEGRITY will not make you a Leader, but without INTEGRITY you will never be one!

INTEGRITY is an expensive gift, do not expect it from cheap people!

INTEGRITY without knowledge is weak, knowledge without INTEGRITY is dangerous!

Wisdom is knowing the right path to take, INTEGRITY is walking that path!

INTEGRITY is doing the right thing when nobody is watching!

INTEGRITY is the willingness to live by our beliefs and standards!
