Sinful Quotes (page 10)

The soul cannot be humbled by fasts and prayer; it must be broken by mortal sin to experience forgiveness of sin and rise to a state of grace. Otherwise, religion is nothing but dead logic. Willa Cather
Ernest Hemingway quote: "Do not think about sin, he thought. There are enough problems..."
Do not think about sin, he thought. There are enough problems now without sin. Also I have no understanding of it. Ernest Hemingway
Christ became our Brother in order to help us. Through him our brother has become Christ for us in the power and authority of the commission Christ has given him. Our brother stands before us the sign of the truth and the grace of God. He has been given to us to help us. He hears the confession of our sins in Christ's stead and he forgives our sins in Christ's name. He keeps the secret of our confession as God keeps it. When I go to my brother to confess, I am going to God. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
The word ‘sin’ is derived from the Indo-European root ‘es-,’ meaning ‘to be.’ When I discovered this etymology, I intuitively understood that for a [person] trapped in patriarchy, which is the religion of the entire planet, ‘to be’ in the fullest sense is ‘to sin'. Mary Daly
Despair is the price one pays for setting oneself an impossible aim. It is, one is told, the unforgivable sin, but it is a sin the corrupt or evil man never practices. He always has hope. He never reaches the freezing-point of knowing absolute failure. Only the man of goodwill carries always in his heart this capacity for damnation. Graham Greene
You're dishonoured, somehow. You've sinned. Sinned against the aspidistra."You talk a great deal about aspidistras," said Ravelston."They're a dashed important subject," said Gordon. George Orwell
The Bible and several other self help or enlightenment books cite the Seven Deadly Sins. They are: pride, greed, lust, envy, wrath, sloth, and gluttony. That pretty much covers everything that we do, that is sinful... or fun for that matter. Dave Mustaine
One of the peculiar sins of the twentieth century which we've developed to a very high level is the sin of credulity. It has been said that when human beings stop believing in God they believe in nothing. The truth is much worse: they believe in anything. Malcolm Muggeridge
Dwight L. Moody quote: "The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from..."
The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from the Bible. Dwight L. Moody
Moliere quote: "It is the public scandal that offends; to sin in secret is no..."
It is the public scandal that offends; to sin in secret is no sin at all. Moliere
All anger is not sinful, because some degree of it, and on some occasions, is inevitable. But it becomes sinful and contradicts the rule of Scripture when it is conceived upon slight and inadequate provocation, and when it continues long. Wilson Mizner
You can't have virtue without sin. What I'm after is having my characters' virtues defined by how they operate in a very sinful environment. That's how you test people. Frank Miller
I live in sin, to kill myself I live; no longer my life my own, but sin's; my good is given to me by heaven, my evil by myself, by my free will, of which I am deprived. Michelangelo
William Gurnall quote: "The sins of teachers are the teachers of sin."
The sins of teachers are the teachers of sin. William Gurnall
Most fear stems from sin; to limit one's sins, one must assuredly limit one's fear, thereby bringing more peace to one's spirit. Marvin Gaye
