    You never feel you could do better? You never make a mistake or experience accidents?

    you are right, how about not just a wallet
    how about honesty with your taxes and income?
    if the grocer gave you an extra 1 by accident, do you keep it?

    the world is selfish by nature, each one of us

    it is not about how we are treated, it is about how we treat others

    There is a difference, for me, between individual people and multimillion dollar corporations.

    and I understand that

    but is it not the same?

    maybe a bad analogy but I will give it a shot

    does a hooker that charges a $1000 for whatever
    any different than a hooker that charges $5 for the same thing

    and that is about it,

    the deed is the same

    just like honesty, is it possible for any human to be completely honest in all things? not just some things, but all things..not sure

    Treating others with respect. Doing what you would hope someone would do for you. Not being selfish and just trying to get anything you can out of someone else's bad luck. Basically just being a good person. Don't be an asshole.

    Not everyone. I would never steal from someone to make my life better. I'd rather be honest than rich. Being a good person helps me sleep at night.

    Those are things you say are important to you. Now if what you say and what you do are the same then you have integrity on that issue.

    A mouth needs an asshole otherwise nothing it eats will get through.
