Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
“It is in the nature of the human being to seek a justification for his actions.”
Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago, 1918-1956: An Experiment in Literary Investigation V-VII

“The world is full of men who want to be right, when actually the secret of a man's strength and his pathway to true honor is his ability to admit fault when he has failed. God wants to fill the church with men who can say they are wrong when THEY ARE WRONG. A man who is willing to humble himself before God and his family and say:"I was wrong." will find that his family has all the confidence in the world in him and will much more readily follow him. If he stubbornly refuses to repent or admit he was wrong, their confidence in him and in his leadership erodes.”
Jim Anderson, Unmasked: Exposing the Cultural Sexual Assualt

“Even if toxic people are right about what is "good," they are wrong if the approach is not healthy.”

If I am wrong, O, teach my heart
To find that better way!”

There's a touch of gray for every shade of blue.

Then there'd be nothing right.”

Rachel Ward, Numbers

“We must all work in harmony with each other to stand up for what is right, to speak up for what is fair, and to always voice any corrections so that the ignorant become informed and justice is never ignored. Every time a person allows an act of ignorance to happen, they delay our progress for true change. Every person, molecule and thing matters. We become responsible for the actions of others the instant we become conscious of what they are doing wrong and fail to remind them of what is right.”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

Richelle E. Goodrich
“Your opponent's wrong doesn't automatically make you right. Most fights aren't about who's right; they are contention over degrees of wrongness.”
Richelle E. Goodrich, Making Wishes: Quotes, Thoughts, & a Little Poetry for Every Day of the Year

Lee Smolin
“Some string theorists prefer to believe that string theory is too arcane to be understood by human beings, rather than consider the possibility that it might just be wrong.”
Lee Smolin, The Trouble with Physics: The Rise of String Theory, the Fall of a Science and What Comes Next

Mary Balogh
“Occasionally we all do wrong things from right motives. Only time can prove us right or wrong. The past is the past. Nothing can change it now, and who is to say that it was all wrong, anyway?”
Mary Balogh, The Devil's Web

“As long as there is one person suffering an injustice; as long as one person is forced to bear an unnecessary sorrow; as long as one person is subject to an undeserved pain, the worship of a God is a demoralizing humiliation.

As long as there is one mistake in the universe; as long as one wrong is permitted to exist; as long as there is hatred and antagonism among mankind, the existence of a God is a moral impossibility.

Ingersoll said: 'Injustice upon earth renders the justice of of heaven impossible.”
Joseph Lewis, An Atheist Manifesto

George Soros
“Misconceptions play a prominent role in my view of the world.”
George Soros

“If I could, Sister James, I would certainly choose to live in innocence. But innocence can only be wisdom in a world without evil. Situations arise and we are confronted with wrongdoing and the need to act.”
John Patrick Shanley, Doubt, a Parable

Mouloud Benzadi
“The pain you feel is a sign that something in your life is not right!
Do not ignore it!
Face it from the
BEGINNING!
Don't let it turn into continuous
SUFFERING
and ruin your happiness and WELL-BEING.”
Mouloud Benzadi

Douglas Coupland
“As you grow older, it becomes harder to feel 100 percent happy; you learn all the things that can go wrong, you become superstitious about tempting fate, about bringing disaster upon your life by accidentally feeling too good one day.”
Douglas Coupland

Stacey Jay
“But maybe that isn't possible. Maybe the mind of the majority is always the healthy mind, simply by virtue of its numbers. Maybe it's the definition of madness to believe I'm right and everyone else if wrong, to find my thoughts rational and reasonable when almost the entire world finds them damaged and flawed.”
Stacey Jay, Of Beast and Beauty

Emily Brontë
“It's wrong to anticipate evil.”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

John Scalzi
“I’m a monster. You’re a monster. We’re all fucking inhuman monsters, and we don’t see a damned thing wrong with it.”

“Being sad with the right people is better than being happy with the wrong ones.”
Philippos

Criss Jami
“Divinity for the sake of the simple-minded is beautiful. Those theological assertions you write, say, or live by that you later feel foolish about, it means God still lives in you enough to tell you that they were indeed foolish. By mistakes you know you are alive.”
Criss Jami, Salomé: In Every Inch In Every Mile

Vironika Tugaleva
“Life is not a sport. Life is not math. There is no final end goal and there is no right answer. Just because your truth does not match someone else's truth does not make either of you wrong. Life is not a zero sum game. If I am right, that does not make you wrong. If you are right, that does not make me wrong either. A jar of vinegar can sit in a cupboard beside a box of baking soda peacefully, and we can allow those who disagree with us to exist alongside us without reacting to them. There is nothing to prove. There is enough room in the world for all of us.”
Vironika Tugaleva

Emily Henry
“How are you supposed to believe right’s right and wrong’s wrong if everyone around you says the opposite?”
Emily Henry, Beach Read

Prem Jagyasi
“We are so preoccupied with our own point of view that most of the time or we are searching for reasons to convert others to it. We feel that we are right as a rule and anything that contradicts is wrong.”
Dr Prem Jagyasi

Douglas Adams
“The great thing about being the only species that makes a distinction between right and wrong is that we can make up the rules for ourselves as we go along.”
Douglas Adams, Last Chance to See

“Stand up for what is right even if it means standing alone.”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

"The world", Amelia said, "is wrong about so many things.”
Christina Henry, The Mermaid

Jessica Khoury
“You’re beautiful and wild and kind, and I can’t stop thinking about you.â€� A sunny, foolish smile breaks across his face. “It’s wrong and stupid and wonderful, Zahra. I didn’t mean for it to happen, but here I am. I love you.”
Jessica Khoury, The Forbidden Wish
