Some quotes about righteousness:
"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."Dale E. Turner
"The atom bomb was no ''great decision.'' It was merely another powerful weapon in the arsenal of righteousness."
Harry S Truman (33rd President of the United States)
"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 Butterfield
