  Yes, I think so:  Insincerity.

  If a person is insincere, either in terms of what they preach,
  or insincere in their struggle to live what they preach --
  then you have hypocrisy.

  But if you are sincere, I don't think it's hypocrisy to speak about
  virtues, vision, the type of person you strive to be, and even to
  advocate in praise of virtue, even though you yourself will
  probably never quite touch the ideal.


  If I may make a bit of a tangent here;

  I find a lot of value in reading Chapter X ("Modern Civilization
  and Our Universe,") of the manual to Ultima IV.  The Afterward is
  interesting too; So are the first couple paragraphs of the booklet
  as well.

  Actually, the whole game is just awesome.

  You can read the manual at:
