“What is termed Sin is an essential element of progress. Without it the world would stagnate, or grow old, or become colorless. By its curiosity Sin increases the experience of the race. Through its intensified assertion of individualism it saves us from monotony of type. In its rejection of the current notions about morality, it is one with the higher ethics.”
Oscar Wilde
“Hate the sin and love the sinner.”
Mahatma Ghandi
“I think we all sin by needlessly disobeying the apostolic injunction to "rejoice" as much as by anything else”
C.S. Lewis
“If a man possesses a repentant spirit his sins will disappear, but if he has an unrepentant spirit his sins will continue and condemn him for their sake forever.”
Buddha
“Sex is not sinful, but sin has perverted it.”
Walter Lang
“The world is filled with folly and sin, And Love must cling, where it can, I say: For Beauty is easy enough to win; But one isn't loved every day”
Owen Meredith
“Love is my sin, and thy dear virtue hate, Hate of my sin, grounded on sinful loving”
William Shakespeare
