A decent man who doesn't consider himself a bigot can indeed be trained to behave like a bigot if he welcomes feedback exclusively from those who consider bigotry no big deal or, indeed, an attribute to be admired.
Adam-Troy Castro
The person I liked the best was Gerald R. Ford. He was the most decent man in politics I ever had any relationships with.
Alan Greenspan
Eric Holder is a decent man.
Benjamin Wittes
The fact that I ended up married to a decent man is still a source of amazement to me, thanks to 'The Women's Room.'
Catherine Jinks
Everybody now seems to be talking about democracy. I don't understand this. As I think of it, democracy isn't like a Sunday suit to be brought out and worn only for parades. It's the kind of a life a decent man leads, it's something to live for and to die for.
Dalton Trumbo
Obama is making a choice now that will lead to the deaths of many thousands of civilians in Afghanistan by American hands. By ordinary standards of presidents, he is a decent man. But those standards aren't good enough. He's in a position either to kill or not to kill, and he's made the decision to kill.
Daniel Ellsberg
It's a sad and stupid thing to have to proclaim yourself a revolutionary just to be a decent man.
David Harris
Somewhere deep down there's a decent man in me, he just can't be found.
Eminem
There are things which a man is afraid to tell even to himself, and every decent man has a number of such things stored away in his mind.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Every decent man is ashamed of the government he lives under.
H. L. Mencken
In Plains, I saw Jimmy Carter as he really is - a nice, decent man... in terms of compassionate contribution to society, he certainly has proven to be our best past president.
Helen Thomas
My mother taught me what it is to have a sense of humour; my dad, who was a headmaster, everything you need to know about hard work. My dad is the most decent man you could come across.
James Nesbitt
I'm not suggesting for a minute that you settle for the first half-decent man who comes along - every woman has the right to hold out for Mr Right - but you may find that really addressing your feelings about having a family means the man you thought was Mr Right comes in a different form.
Kate Garraway
Randy Edsall is a good, strong, decent man who is working his tail off on behalf of the University of Maryland. And there are more people that want to spend their days burning things down than building it up. At least just stop rooting against him. You know, give the guy a chance.
Kevin Plank
President Ford was a devoted, decent man of impeccable integrity who put service to his country before his own self interest. He helped heal our nation during a time of crisis, provided steady leadership and restored people's faith in the presidency and in government.
Mark Udall
A Tory government with a decent mandate seems the only hope of tackling the fiscal catastrophe responsibly.
Max Hastings
A decent player doesn't automatically make a decent manager, I know that. But I will do everything I possibly can.
Michael Carrick
Fame changes everything. When you're well-known, you're expected to be different. Some people assume you must have a yacht and four homes. Or that you're famous because you are 'A Decent Man'.
Michael Palin
I have known Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla for a long time. He is a good man. He is a decent man.
N. R. Narayana Murthy
I feel unfulfilled in England. I think I'm a decent manager and a very good coach. I've still got a lot to offer some club who will maybe take a chance on me.
Steve Clarke
I hope people remember me as a good and decent man. And if they do, then that's success.
