Quote by Theodor Adorno

Wrong life cannot be lived rightly.

Wrong life cannot be lived rightly.

Summary

This quote suggests that it is impossible to live a morally righteous life if one is living in a fundamentally flawed or incorrect manner. In other words, if the choices and actions we undertake are based on a flawed perspective or foundation, it is unlikely that we can truly and consistently make morally correct decisions. It emphasizes the importance of self-reflection and ensuring that our principles and beliefs align with what is considered ethical and just, as only then can we live a life that is truly righteous.
