Text Quotes
When the saint ceases to seek after holiness, purity, righteousness, truth; when he ceases to pray, stops reading the Word and gives way to carnal appetites, then it is that Satan comes  (Righteousness Quotes) Brevity in writing is what charity is to all other virtues - righteousness is nothing without the one, nor authorship without the other  (Righteousness Quotes) To hunger and thirst after righteousness is when nothing in the world can fascinate us so much as being near God  (Righteousness Quotes) There must be a corps that will battle for righteousness, for there are endless battalions who serve unrighteousness  (Righteousness Quotes) Self righteousness loves to pounce on an evil which by sheer accident is not its particular evil  (Righteousness Quotes) The Lord needs women who will step forward in righteousness and say, ‘Here am I, send me.’  (Righteousness Quotes) A man’s sentiments are generally just and right, while it is second selfish thought which makes him trim and adopt some other view. The best reforms are worked out when sentiment operates, as it does in women, with the indignation of righteousness  (Righteousness Quotes) I wish your increase in holiness, number, love, religion, and righteousness; and wait you, and cease to contend with these men that are gone from us, for there is nothing that shall convince them but judgment  (Righteousness Quotes) When I first saw tap dancing, I immediately got it: the righteousness of being able to make so much noise with your feet!  (Righteousness Quotes) If you see oppression of the poor, and justice and righteousness trampled in a country, do not be astounded  (Righteousness Quotes) To make your people understand what righteousness is, this must be the basis of all your teaching  (Righteousness Quotes) How many does it take to metamorphose wickedness into righteousness? One man must not kill. If he does, it is murder... But a state or nation may kill as many as they please, and it is not murder. It is just, necessary, commendable, and right. Only get people enough to agree to it, and the butchery of myriads of human beings is perfectly innocent. But how many does it take?  (Righteousness Quotes) Country people tend to consider that they have a corner on righteousness and to distrust most manifestations of cleverness, while people in the city are leery of righteousness but ascribe to themselves all manner of cleverness  (Righteousness Quotes) Perhaps the best function of parenthood is to teach the young creature to love with safety, so that it may be able to venture unafraid when later emotion comes; the thwarting of the instinct to love is the root of all sorrow and not sex only but divinity itself is insulted when it is repressed. To disapprove, to condemn the human soul shrivels under barren righteousness  (Righteousness Quotes) People are submissive to power, and few of them can be influenced by doctrines of righteousness  (Righteousness Quotes) You have to expect spiritual warfare whenever you stand up for righteousness or call attention to basic values. It’s just a matter of light battling the darkness. But the light wins every time. You can’t throw enough darkness on light to put it out  (Righteousness Quotes) The real point is that you cannot harbor malice toward others and then cry foul when someone displays intolerance against you. Prejudice tolerated is intolerance encouraged. Rise up in righteousness when you witness the words and deeds of hate, but only if you are willing to rise up against them all, including your own. Otherwise suffer the slings and arrows of disrespect silently  (Righteousness Quotes) The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles  (Righteousness Quotes) True purity, however, is a direction, a persistent, determined pursuit of righteousness. This direction starts in the heart, and we express it in a lifestyle that flees opportunities for compromise  (Righteousness Quotes) A person who suffers bitterly when slighted or insulted should recognize from this that he still harbors the ancient serpent in his breast. If he quietly endures the insult or responds with great humility, he weakens the serpent and lessens its hold. But if he replies acrimoniously or brazenly, he gives it strength to pour its venom into his heart and to feed mercilessly on his guts. In this way the serpent becomes increasingly powerful; it destroys his soul’s strength and his attempts to set himself right, compelling him to live for sin and to be completely dead to righteousness  (Righteousness Quotes) One should not be envious of someone who has prospered by unjust deeds. Nor should he disdain someone who has fallen while adhering to the path of righteousness  (Righteousness Quotes) The ultimate success of this government and the stability of its institutions, its progress in all that can make a nation honored, depend upon its adherence to the principles of truth and righteousness  (Righteousness Quotes) I live in a country where we put children in shackles and in concrete cells. Working together, with righteousness and hope, we can create a country that is about reverence and reconciliation, not a world of shackles and concrete cells  (Righteousness Quotes) The resurrection stands related to righteousness in the same way that death stands related to sin  (Righteousness Quotes) Empathy is an antidote to righteousness, although it’s very difficult to empathize across a moral divide  (Righteousness Quotes) In spinning a robe of your own righteousness, before the sun goes down you will find it all unraveled  (Righteousness Quotes) A man who has been born into the house of a warrior and yet places no loyalty in his heart and thinks only of the fortune of his position will be flattering on the surface and construct schemes in his heart, will forsake righteousness and not reflect on his shame, and will stain the warrior’s name of his household to later generations. This is truly regrettable  (Righteousness Quotes) How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give himself up individually to a righteous cause. Such a fine, sunny day, and I have to go, but what does my death matter, if through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?  (Righteousness Quotes) The fruit of humanity is devotion to one’s parents. The fruit of righteousness is to respect one’s elders. The fruit of wisdom is to understand these two and not to betray them. The fruit of propriety is to regulate and polish them. The fruit of music is the joy that comes from rejoicing in them. When one rejoices in them, they grow. When they grow, how can they be stopped? And when they cannot be stopped, unconsciously one’s feet begin to dance and one’s arms begin to wave  (Righteousness Quotes) It’s okay that your parents aren’t perfect; no one’s are. And it’s okay that they didn’t have any perfect children either; no one’s are. You see, our whole purpose is to strive together in righteousness, overcoming our weaknesses day by day. Don’t ever give up on each other  (Righteousness Quotes)
