The sinner sins against himself the wrongdoer wrongs himself, becoming the worse by his own action.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
How many girls there are who do not see any wrongdoing in following certain shameless styles like so many sheep. They certainly would blush if they could guess the impression they make and the feelings they evoke in those who see them.
Pope Pius XII
Image
Things only looked wrong when there was someone to see you.
Anna Godbersen
Image
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about.
Rumi
Image
If one must do a wrong, it's best to do it pursuing power-otherwise, let's have virtue.
Euripides
Image
If you ever find yourself in the wrong story, leave.
Mo Willems
Image
Why anyone, by dying, should thereby be declared beyond criticism, innocent of wrongdoing, suddenly filled with virtue and above reproach escapes me.
Dick Cavett
Image
Moral principles do not depend on a majority vote. Wrong is wrong, even if everybody is wrong. Right is right, even if nobody is right.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
Every time we're about to criticize someone for what we think they did wrong, let's first remember to thank them for the things they did right. And to mean it to sincerely affirm them. Then, if there's still a problem that needs to be shared, it will come from a completely different energy -- and actually be heard!
Marianne Williamson
Image
The act of evil breeds others to follow, young sins in its own likeness.
Aeschylus
Image
Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.
Ella Fitzgerald
Image
No female iniquity was more severely condemned than the habit of plucking eyebrows and the hairline to heighten the forehead.
Barbara Tuchman
Image
Violence and wrong enclose all who commit them in their meshes and do mostly recoil on him from whom they begin.
Lucretius
Image
The government would assert that individuals who are aware of serious wrongdoing in the intelligence community should bring their concerns to the people most responsible for that wrongdoing, and rely on those people to correct the problems that those people themselves authorized.
Edward Snowden
Image
Guilt agonizes over trifles, ignores habitual wrongdoing.
Mason Cooley
Image
Many might go to heaven with half the labour they go to hell, if they would venture their industry the right way.
Ben Jonson
Image
Just be wrong. Just stand there in your wrongness and be wrong, and get used to it.
Josiah Bartlett
Image
whoever has done a wrong deed and thinks that no one knows it, deceives himself.
Johanna Spyri
Image
History has brought us to the point where the Christian message is thought to be essential concerned only with how to deal with sin: with wrongdoing or wrong-being and its effects. Life, our actual existence, is not included in what is now presented as the heart of the Christian message, or it is included only marginally.
Dallas Willard
Image
But in the end, we learn we can forgive most people. The cushion of mortality makes their wrongdoing seem less dark, and whatever roads they traveled seem less foolhardy.
Walter Dean Myers
Image
There are just too many opportunities - and an increasing number of them - to hide systemic, institutional wrongdoing behind legal veils, legal theories, and arbitrary exemptions. I hope that we can start to chip away at this, but it sure looks like society is still sliding in the opposite direction.
Chelsea Manning
Image
To me, when someone wrongs you, you both share the burden of that wrongdoing—the pain of it weighs on both of you. Forgiveness, then, means choosing to bear the full weight all by yourself.
Veronica Roth
Image
It takes less time to do a thing right, than it does to explain why you did it wrong.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Image
Some there are who are much more ashamed of confessing a sin than of committing it.
Marguerite de Navarre
