Sinful

Famous quotes containing the word sinful:

    Let sinful bachelors their woes deplore;
    Full well they merit all they feel, and more:
    Unaw’d by precepts, human or divine,
    Like birds and beasts, promiscuously they join.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Ireland still remains the Holy Isle whose aspirations must on no account be mixed with the profane class-struggles of the rest of the sinful world ... the Irish peasant must not on any account know that the Socialist workers are his sole allies in Europe.
    Friedrich Engels (1820–1895)

    But I am sure, thou dost now come
    Oft to a narrow, homely room,
    Where thou too hast but the least part,
    My God, I mean my sinful heart.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
