Famous quotes containing the word sin:

    If you’re going to sin, sin against God, not the bureaucracy; God will forgive you but the bureaucracy won’t.
    Hyman G. Rickover (1900–1986)

    It ain’t no sin if you crack a few laws now and then, just so long as you don’t break any.
    Mae West, U.S. actor, screenwriter, and A. Edward Sutherland. Peaches O’Day (Mae West)

    Evil is neither suffering nor sin; it is both at the same time, it is something common to them both. For they are linked together; sin makes us suffer and suffering makes us evil, and this indissoluble complex of suffering and sin is the evil in which we are submerged against our will, and to our horror.
    Simone Weil (1909–1943)
