Sinning Quotes (page 35)

I believe all sin, love, glory are this: when you slide down the knotted sheets, escaping from Gestapo headquarters, and she hugs you, there, suspended, and she whispers that she's always dreamed of you. The rest is just sex, copulation, the perpetuation of the vile species. Umberto Eco
I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am pretty, but not beautiful. I have friends, but I am not the peacemaker. Marilyn Monroe
Humanity takes itself too seriously. It is the world's original sin. If the cave-man had known how to laugh, History would have been different. Oscar Wilde
Because the evil one is ever at work, our vigilance cannot be relaxed--not even for a moment. A small and seemingly innocent invitation can turn into a tall temptation which can lead to tragic transgression. Night and day, at home or away, we must shun sin and hold fast that which is good. Russell M. Nelson
Ignore how it feels when the only real talent you have is for hidding the truth. You have a God-given knack for commiting a terrible sin. It's your calling. You have a natural gift for denial. A blessing. Chuck Palahniuk
Grace interpreted as a principle, pecca fortiter as a principle, grace at a low cost, is in the last resort simply a new law, which brings neither help nor freedom. Grace as a living word, pecca fortiter as our comfort in tribulation and as a summons to discipleship, costly grace is the only pure grace, which really forgives sins and gives freedom to the sinner. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
O. Henry quote: "I hate it as one hates sin or pestilence or--the color work in..."
I hate it as one hates sin or pestilence or--the color work in a ten-cent magazine. O. Henry
Gwendolyn Brooks quote: "we real cool. we left school. we lurk late. we strike..."
we real cool. we left school. we lurk late. we strike straight. we sing sin. we thin gin. we jazz june. we die soon. Gwendolyn Brooks
Love, the great, the strong, the conquering god --- Love that subdues a world, and rides roughshod over principle, virtue, tradition, over home, kindred, and religion -- what cares he for the easy conquest of the pathetic being, who appeals to his sympathy? Love means equality -- the same height of heroism or of sin. When Love stoops to pity, he has ceased to soar in the boundless space, that rarefied atmosphere wherein man feels himself made at last truly in the image of God. Baroness Orczy
..those renunciations that men have unwisely called virtue, as much as those natural rebellions that wise men still call sin. Oscar Wilde
The way to innocence, to the uncreated and to God leads on, not back, not back to the wolf or to the child, but ever further into sin, ever deeper into human life. Herman Hesse
If any has stumbled in his journey, there is a way back. The process is called repentance. Our Savior died to provide you and me that blessed gift. Though the path is difficult, the promise is real: ‘Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow’ (Isaiah 1:18). Thomas S. Monson
Because to influence a person is to give him one's own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtues are not real to him. His sins... are borrowed. He becomes an echo of some one else's music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him. Oscar Wilde
John Steinbeck quote: "There ain't no sin and there ain't no virtue. There's just..."
There ain't no sin and there ain't no virtue. There's just stuff people do. John Steinbeck
William Shakespeare quote: "Some rise by sin, and some by virtues fall."
Some rise by sin, and some by virtues fall. William Shakespeare
