"ethics are never timid" - with ethics it is always right or wrong there is no gray
"rarely Convenient" - it is harder to be ethical then unethical
"and always vital" - if you want someone to be able to trust you as a person how ethics you are will determine that.

This is of course open to interpretation, but my take is:
Ethics (assuming you have a good understanding of what ethics are in the first place) are...
"Never timid..": meaning that ethics are bold, full of conviction and bravery (and that ethical people have those same traits).
"...rarely convenient...": meaning that choosing the ethical thing usually means undertaking the harder route; that choosing the unethical thing may be fast and easy and the ethical thing may make your task longer and more difficult.
..."always vital...": meaning that it is always necessary to take the ethical route and that there are no exceptions.
To me it it simple: one must always strive to follow the ethical route over the easy route.

I'm a vegan, so ethics definitely impact me.
They aren't convenient because veganism in today's world with how many people discriminate...
...and they are vital because it's something that I need to do.
