“Well, there's a Book that says we're all sinners and I at least chose a sin that's made quite a few people happier than they were before they met me, a sin that's left me with very little time to consider other extremely popular moral misdemeanors, like usury, intolerance, bearing false tales, extortion, racial bigotry, and the casting of that first stone.” PeopleFirstsWellsLittlesMadeBookLeftSinMoralMetsStonesTalesSinnerBigotryIntoleranceCastingLittle TimeUsuryExtortionMisdemeanors Author:Sally Stanford
“Ah, sinner, may the Lord quicken thee! But it is a work that makes the Saviour weep. I think when He comes to call some of you from your death in sin, He comes weeping and sighing for you. There is a stone that is to be rolled away--your bad and evil habits--and when that stone is taken away, a still small voice will not do for you; it must be the loud crashing voice, like the voice of the Lord which breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.” ThinkingMayStillsEvilVoiceSinLordTakenHabitStonesTheeLoudSinnerWeepingSaviourLebanonSmall VoiceCedars Book:The Complete Works of C.

“There is a fundamental difference between Jesus and Muhammad and their teachings. When the Jews brought a prostitute to Christ and asked him what to do with her because the law says stone her, Jesus said, let the one who has not committed any sin throw the first stone.

All we need are few good teachings and this is one of them.” NeedsFirstsHumansSaidLawJesusChristDifferencesHuman BeingsSinTeachingStonesFundamentalsCommittedJewMuhammadGreat TeachingGood Teaching Author:Ali Sina

“Augustine says that we may, out of our dead sins, make stepping stones to rise to the heights of perfection. What did he mean by that?

“I am a star in the firmament that observe the world, despises the world and consumed in its heat. I am the sea by night in a storm the sea shouting that accumulates new sins and to the ancient makes recompense.

I am the passion without words without stones of the hearth, without weapons in the war, is my same force that make me sick” WorldWarNightPassionForceStarsSinSeaPrideKingsWeaponsStonesSickAncientStormHeatDespiseCrownsPoliteConsumedShoutingFirmamentRecompense Author:Hermann Hesse
