Righteous Jews

Famous quotes containing the words righteous and/or jews:

    Give me this day a faith not personal
    As follows: The American people fully armed
    With assurance policies, righteous and harmed,
    Battle the world of which they’re not at all.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    No doubt Jews are most obnoxious creatures. Any competent historian or psychoanalyst can bring a mass of incontrovertible evidence to prove that it would have been better for the world if the Jews had never existed. But I, as an Irishman, can, with patriotic relish, demonstrate the same of the English. Also of the Irish.... We all live in glass houses. Is it wise to throw stones at the Jews? Is it wise to throw stones at all?
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
