QUOTES AND APHORISMS ON BETRAYAL
They talk of a man betraying his country, his friends, his sweetheart. There must be a moral bond first. All a man can betray is his conscience.
Joseph Conrad (1857-1924, Polish-born British novelist)
It is all right to rat, but you can't re-rat.
Winston Churchill (1874-1965, British statesman, Prime Minister)
If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.
Edward M. Forster (1879-1970, British novelist, essayist)
We are much harder on people who betray us in small ways than on people who betray others in great ones.
Francois De La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680, French classical writer)
One has not the right to betray even a traitor. Traitors must be fought, got betrayed.
Charles Peguy (1873-1914, French poet, philosopher)
To betray you must first belong.
Harold Philby
