ANYWAY People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered, LOVE THEM ANYWAY If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives, DO GOOD ANYWAY If you are successful, you win false and true enemies, SUCCEDED ANYWAY The good you do will be forgotten tomorrow, DO GOOD ANYWAY Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable, BE HONEST AND FRANK ANYWAY What you spent years building may be distroyed overnight, BUILD ANYWAY People really need help but many attack you if you help them, HELP PEOPLE ANYWAY Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth, GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU'VE GOT ANYWAY (This song - calling PRAYER of MOTHER TERESA - is siting on the wall of Shishu Bhavan, the children home in Calcutta)
WHAT IS KONSEQUENTIALISM “Those who think that ethics is a system of rules - the deontologists - can rescue their position by finding more complicated and more specific rules which do not conflict with each other, or by ranking the rules in some hierarchical structure to resolve conflicts between them... Consequentialists start not with moral rules but with GOALS. They assess actions by the extent to which they further these goals… In place of my own interests, I now have to take account of the interests of all affected by my decision. This requires me to weigh up all these interests and adopt the course of action most likely to maximize the interests of those affected. Thus I must choose the course of action which has THE BEST CONSEQUENCES, on balance, for all affected.” (Peter Singer: Practical Ethics, Cambridge Univ. Press, 1991, pp. 3, 12)
