Joseph Sobran Quotes

A Belief In Moral Absolutes Should Always Make Us More, Not Less, Critical Of Both Sides In Any Conflict. This Doesn't Mean That Both Sides Are Equally Wrong; It Means That Since We All Fall Short Of Moral Perfection, Even The Side Whose Cause Is Truly Righteous May Commit Terrible Acts Of Violence In Defense Of That Cause
And, Worse, May Feel Quite Justified In Committing Them. That Is The Difference Between Being Righteous And Being Self-righteous. Moral Standards Are Absolute; But Human Fidelity To Them Is Always Relative.
