Sin Sin

Famous quotes containing the word sin:

    By Jove, I am not covetous for gold,
    Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost;
    It yearns me not if men my garments wear;
    Such outward things dwell not in my desires.
    But if it be a sin to covet honor
    I am the most offending soul alive.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Through tattered clothes great vices do appear;
    Robes and furred gowns hide all. Place sin with gold,
    And the strong lance of justice hurtless breaks:
    Arm it in rags, a pigmy’s straw does pierce it.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
