1. The familiar admonition to put your money where your mouth is suggests that its far easier to speak up for a principle than to live up to it. Thats why most
of us, whether we intend to or not, say one thing but often do another. Its just part of human nature.
Assignment:
Is the common tendency to often say one thing but do another built into our nature, or is it something that experience teaches us to do?

From an editorial in the New York Times, January 16, 2005

may make your kids horribly sick.The guy had his kids stop tormenting the turtle right away. Was this lie justified?
From a letter by David Weinrich, published in The Ethicist by Randy Cohen, New York Times Magazine, January 16, 2005
