Ethics and Morals

This quote came from Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard (played by David McCullum) on the show NCIS. I thought it was quite thought provoking:

Ducky was asked the question what is the difference between ethics and morals. His answer:

"The ethical man knows he shouldn't cheat on his wife
wheras the moral man actually wouldn't"

    I like that! That would have been a great quote to use in my old ethics class.
