"right-and-wrong"タグの名言

When I was a little girl, everything in the world fell into either of these two categories: wrong or right. Black or white. Now that I am an adult, I have put childish things aside and now I know that some things fall into wrong and some things fall into right. Some things are categorized as black and some things are categorized as white. But most things in the world aren't either! Most things in the world aren't black, aren't white, aren't wrong, aren't right, but most of everything is just different. And now I know that there's nothing wrong with different, and that we can let things be different, we don't have to try and make them black or white, we can just let them be grey. And when I was a child, I thought that God was the God who only saw black and white. Now that I am no longer a child, I can see, that God is the God who can see the black and the white and the grey, too, and He dances on the grey! Grey is okay.

...Next time you're faced with a choice, do the right thing. It hurts everyone less in the long run.

You are not just for the right or left, but for what is right over the wrong.

We awaken by asking the right questions. We awaken when we see knowledge being spread that goes against our own personal experiences. We awaken when we see popular opinion being wrong but accepted as being right, and what is right being pushed as being wrong. We awaken by seeking answers in corners that are not popular. And we awaken by turning on the light inside when everything outside feels dark.

Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it.

Errors do not cease to be errors simply because they’re ratified into law.

An open mind, in questions that are not ultimate, is useful. But an open mind about the ultimate foundations either of Theoretical or of Practical Reason is idiocy. If a man's mind is open on these things, let his mouth at least be shut. He can say nothing to the purpose. Outside the Tao there is no ground for criticizing either the Tao or anything else.

It's a strange truth that no matter how persuaded we might be of our own correctness, the discomfiting realization that others disagree with us causes a paralyzing inability to argue the case convincingly.

Stand up for what is right against the wrong.

What one thinks is right is not always the same as what others think is right; no one can be always right.

Good...if you've done things you aren't proud of. It means you have a conscience.

... what you think is right isn't the same as knowing what is right.

If you boil it down, just because someone else does the wrong thing we are not exempt from doing what’s right.

The probability that we may fail in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just.

YOU ARE JUST You are not just for the right or left, but for what is right over the wrong. You are not just rich or poor, but always wealthy in the mind and heart. You are not perfect, but flawed. You are flawed, but you are just. You may just be conscious human, but you are also a magnificent reflection of God.

Are right and wrong convertible terms, dependant upon popular opinion?
