“My God." He pushed away from the bedpost. "Friends! And do you fall into bed with any man who's 'dear' to you? How am I to take that?" "Of course I don't." She stood up, letting the knotted scarf slip away. "I can't seem to help myself. With you. About that. It's extremely vexing." "You're quite right on that count," he said sullenly. "I'm damned vexed. I'd like to vex you right here on the floor, in fact. And the idea of Sturgeon vexing you is enough to dispose me to murder. Is that clear? Do you comprehend me?" He took a reckless stride toward her and caught her chin between his fingers. "I'm not your friend, my lady. I'm your lover.”

“more sensual we get, the less appetite for sinning we have. Most of us have been told the opposite. I mean, you cannot get me to like or watch porn even if you promised to pay me a million dollars. I have no appetite whatsoever for it. In fact, I’m completely repulsed by it. It is so not aligned with my sensuality that the sight of it nauseates me. I literally get an urge to vomit, and I’m not exaggerating. Something weird just happens in my body, and it’s got nothing to do with shame but sensuality.”

“You think you’re annoyed because of Plikt’s arrogance, but that isn’t so. Plikt is not arrogant; she is merely precise. You are properly ashamed that you have not yet read Demosthenes’ history of your own people, and so in your shame you are annoyed at Plikt because she is not guilty of your sin.” “I thought speakers didn’t believe in sin,” said a sullen boy. Andrew smiled. “You believe in sin, Styrka, and you do things because of that belief. So sin is real in you, and knowing you, this speaker must believe in sin.”

“I think that no man who lives a merely negative religious life can ever know real spiritual joy. There are many people who pride themselves on the things they do not do. The negative Christian always suggests a lamp-post to me. The negative Christian says he is going to heaven because he does not lie. Neither does the lamp-post. The negative Christian does not steal. Neither does the lamp-post steal. He does not cheat, he does nothing of which he is ashamed: he is therefore blameless. The lamp-post has never done any one of these things. I do not want the Tuskegee students to be lamp-posts in their religious life, but I want them to turn their beliefs into energy that shall work into every detail of their lives.”

“Sin is no longer about having the wrong religious methods or customs. If that were true then Jesus was guilty of sin for breaking the Sabbath, breaking fasts, and breaking lots of purity laws by touching the sick, eating and drinking with sinners, and conversing with Gentile women. Jesus radically redefined sin in his day as simply that which is unjust and harms others.”
