TEMPTATION 43I SIN Consider three things, and thou wilt never fall into sin remember that there is above thee an AllSeeing Eye, an All-Hearing Ear, and a record of all thy actions. THE TALMUD Commit a sin twice, and you will think it perfectly allowable. THE TALMUD Sinful thoughts are even more dangerous than sin itself. THE TALMUD Nip sin in the bud. It is easier blowing out a candle than a house on fire. ANONYMOUS The Day of Atonement is given for the expiation of sins committed against God; but the Day of Atonement will not expiate sins committed against a fellow-man, unless the offender has asked pardon of the one offended. THE TALMUD THE WORLD God's world is bathed in beauty, That makes the day so bright, Or hangs the stars in night. ANONYMOUS Nature has many perfections, to show that it is an image of the Deity, and it has defects, to show that it is but an image. PASCAL.
