Text Quotes
Holiday binge-buying has deep roots in American culture: department stores have been associating turkey gluttony with its spending equivalent since they began sponsoring Thanksgiving Day parades in the early 20th century. (Gluttony Quotes)
Had we been as free from all sins as we were from gluttony and drunkenness we might have been canonized for saints... (Gluttony Quotes)
Let’s just call things what they are. When a man’s love of finery clouds his moral judgment, that is vanity. When he lets a demanding palate make his moral choices, that is gluttony. When he ascribes the divine will to his own whims, that is pride. And when he gets angry at being reminded of animal suffering that his own daily choices might help avoid, that is moral cowardice. (Gluttony Quotes)
O lust, thou infernal fire, whose fuel is gluttony; whose flame is pride, whose sparkles are wanton words; whose smoke is infamy; whose ashes are uncleanness; whose end is hell (Gluttony Quotes)
Information is not knowledge, and knowledge is not wisdom. Reading - even browsing - an old book can yield sustenance denied by a database search. Patience is a virtue, gluttony a sin. (Gluttony Quotes)
I have a head for business and a body for sin. Unfortunately, the sin appears to be gluttony (Gluttony Quotes)
A big man is always accused of gluttony, whereas a wizened or osseous man can eat like a refugee at every meal, and no one ever notices his greed (Gluttony Quotes)
The flesh endures the storms of the present alone; the mind, those of the past and future as well as the present. Gluttony is a lust of the mind (Gluttony Quotes)
Want and wealth equally harden the human heart, as frost and fire are both alien to the human flesh. Famine and gluttony alike drive away nature from the heart of man (Gluttony Quotes)
And by his side rode loathsome gluttony. Deform'd creature, on a filthy swine; his belly was up - blown with luxury, and eke with fatness swollen were his eyne (Gluttony Quotes)
Covetousness is a sort of mental gluttony, not confined to money, but craving honor, and feeding on selfishness (Gluttony Quotes)
Some men find happiness in gluttony and in drunkenness, but no delicate viands can touch their taste with the thrill of pleasure, and what generosity there is in wine steadily refuses to impart its glow to their shriveled hearts (Gluttony Quotes)
Gluttony is the source of all our infirmities and the fountain of all our diseases. As a lamp is choked by a superabundance of oil, and a fire extinguished by excess of fuel, so is the natural health of the body destroyed by intempe diet (Gluttony Quotes)
Let’s just call things what they are. When a man’s love of finery clouds his moral judgment, that is vanity. When he lets a demanding palate make his moral choices, that is gluttony. When he ascribes the divine will to his own whims, that is pride. And when he gets angry at being reminded of animal suffering that his own daily choices might help avoid, that is moral cowardice (Gluttony Quotes)
If we are defined by reason and morality, then reason and morality must define our choices, even when animals are concerned. When people say, for example, that they like their veal or hot dogs too much to ever give them up, and yeah it’s sad about the farms but that’s just the way it is, reason hears in that the voice of gluttony. We can say that what makes a human being human is precisely the ability to understand that the suffering of an animal is more important than the taste of a treat (Gluttony Quotes)
It is the just doom of laziness and gluttony to be inactive without ease and drowsy without tranquility (Gluttony Quotes)
All the seven deadly sins are self destroying, morbid appetites, but in their early stages at least, lust and gluttony, averice and sloth know some gratification, while anger and pride have power, even though that power eventually destroys itself. Envy is impotent, numbed with fear, never ceasing in its appetite, and it knows no gratification, but endless self torment. It has the ugliness of a trapped rat, which gnaws its own foot in an effort to escape (Gluttony Quotes)
What I like about gluttony, a bishop I knew used to say, is that it doesnt hurt anyone else (Gluttony Quotes)
I’ve noticed the people most uptight about smokers and drinkers don’t really have a problem with gluttony and gossip (Gluttony Quotes)
'Horehound sticks are meant to be shared with friends, don't you think?' She was dead wrong about that: Horehound sticks were meant to be gobbled down in solitary gluttony, and preferably in a locked room, but I didn't dare say so (Gluttony Quotes)
We are not born with a need for knowledge, but a hunger for it. Eve bit the apple and it has been gluttony ever since (Gluttony Quotes)
Evidence of defendants lavish lifestyles is often used to provide a motive for fraud. Jurors sometimes wonder why an executive making tens of millions of dollars would cheat to make even more. Evidence of habitual gluttony helps provide the answer (Gluttony Quotes)
People who acquire things beyond their usefulness not only will derive little or no marginal gains from these acquisitions, but they also will experience negative consequences, as with any form of gluttony (Gluttony Quotes)
Like gluttony or drunkenness, hatred seems an agreeable vice when you practice it yourself, but disgusting when observed in others (Gluttony Quotes)
