an.4.18 Aṅguttara Nikāya (Numbered Discourses)

Prejudice (2nd)

“Mendicants, there are these four ways of making unprejudiced decisions.
What four?
Making decisions unprejudiced by favoritism, hostility, stupidity, and cowardice.
These are the four ways of making unprejudiced decisions.
If you don’t act against the teaching
out of favoritism, hostility, cowardice, and stupidity,
your fame swells,
like the moon in the waxing fortnight.”
