Mortification from a self-strength, carried on by ways of self-invention, unto the end of a self-righteousness, is the soul and substnace of all false religion in the world. – John OwenRate it:
One’s virtue cannot always be trusted; for some, use their righteousness for self-righteous purposes. – RJ Intindola – (Gandolfo)Rate it:
How blessed and amazing are God's gifts, dear friends Life with immortality, splendor with righteousness, truth with confidence, faith with assurance, self-control with holiness And all these things are within our comprehension. – Clement of RomeRate it:
But the greatest menace to our civilization today is the conflict between giant organized systems of self-righteousness -- each system only too delighted to find that the other is wicked -- each only too glad that the sins give it the pretext for still deeper hatred and animosity. – Herbert ButterfieldRate it:
In all the work we do, our most valuable asset can be the attitude of self-examination. It is forgivable to make mistakes, but to stand fast behind a wall of self-righteousness and make the same mistake twice is not forgivable. – Dr. Dale E. TurnerRate it:
Where there is self-righteousness, Christ can do nothing. – Francis Cardinal George, OMIRate it:
Vegetarianism is harmless enough, though it is apt to fill a man with wind and self-righteousness. – Sir Robert HutchinsonRate it:
Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last. – Charlotte BronteRate it:
Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last. To pluck the mask from the face of the Pharisee is not to lift an impious hand to the Crown of Thorns. – Charlotte BrontëRate it:
Every system, every thing, every object which measures its success, value, meaning or goal by its own negation has no better suited end than its own, often inevitable, destruction. Yet, the world we live in, especially since the end of the first world war, has been following a downfall by making everything follow a way of life following this self-destructing path. To deviate from this path only meant one thing: death. In this world, living or speaking rightfully, then, is the same as dying. From this paradox every human hurts all their lives without even knowing why, a peaceful world conquered by a never-ending totally invisible and immeasurable sadness that is so comically gigantic it can't be described by any word or horror anymore, that is the world we live in. Everything humans desire, create, work or search for, money, freedom, justice, even spirituality, are only derivate of their responsibility to make things complete, whole, that is to say accomplish the purpose of their life or if it's one or many meanings to make it as correct as possible for as long as possible. Then, the reason I'm telling you this, the reason of your existence is to prove me wrong, prove me I don't have a reason to kill you, anyone or everyone, innocent or not, that there is another cure than murder, than there is something I'm missing, that I'm not irreproachable and that this horror can be stopped without destroying every meaning (lives). From birth to your eventual death, there is no other reason for you and what is yours to have existed and continue to exist than to prove a seemingly banal and average guy that you stand on a higher moral ground than him. You can be mad at it, but I'm rather amused and would be satisfied with either ending, that is what it means to be truly free. Now, it's anything but a game, make me lose life but not my life! Because you have only one shot and if you can't, or I die, my righteousness will haunt humanity until its implosion. – Rémi Lalaque-GuirauteRate it:
I am saying if both Black and Whites dont continue to work together -- bad attitudes and resentments can create a dangerous self-righteousness. Thats all. – Terry CrewsRate it:
