Definition of moral quality connotation

The word "morality" first appeared in the pre-Qin period in China. In the book Tao Te Ching written by Laozi, Laozi once said: "The Tao is born, the animal is virtuous, the object is shaped, and the potential is successful. It is based on the respect and virtue of all things. The respect of Tao, the preciousness of virtue, and the life of a husband are natural. " "Tao" refers to the common truth of natural operation and the world; And "virtue" refers to human virtue, conduct and kingliness. In ancient China, "Tao" and "virtue" were two different concepts, and the word "virtue" did not exist. The combination of "Tao" and "Morality" is in Xunzi's "Persuading Learning": "Therefore, learning ends with ceremony, and the husband is called the ultimate virtue". In ancient western culture, "morality" originated from Latin "Mores", which means customs and habits. Morality is a unique social attribute of human beings, belonging to social ideology and the category of social superstructure. In modern society, morality is determined by the economic foundation of a specific society and serves a certain social and economic foundation. It is the sum total of the code of conduct and code of conduct that people take good and evil as the evaluation standard in social practice and rely on their inner beliefs, public opinion and traditional habits to adjust the interests between individuals and between individuals and society.

Moral quality is a relatively stable moral quality which is internalized into a person's inner belief on the basis of innate quality and formed through acquired moral education and self-moral cultivation. It is a relatively stable feature and tendency in personal moral behavior, and it is the concrete embodiment of moral principles and norms in a certain society in personal thoughts and behaviors. It consists of moral cognition, moral emotion, moral belief, moral will and moral behavior.
