Famous quotes containing the words sweetest and/or sin:
“Scratching is one of nature’s sweetest gratifications, and the one nearest at hand.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“There are confessable agonies, sufferings of which one can positively be proud. Of bereavement, of parting, of the sense of sin and the fear of death the poets have eloquently spoken. They command the world’s sympathy. But there are also discreditable anguishes, no less excruciating than the others, but of which the sufferer dare not, cannot speak. The anguish of thwarted desire, for example.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
