The social ramble ain’t restful  (Vices Quotes) I have made love to ten thousand women since I was thirteen and a half. It wasn’t in any way a vice. I’ve no sexual vices. But I needed to communicate  (Vices Quotes) By associating with good and evil persons a man acquires the virtues and vices which they possess, even as the wind blowing over different places takes along good and bad odours  (Vices Quotes) No one can shed light on vices he does not have or afflictions he has never experienced  (Vices Quotes) We are more apt to catch the vices of others than their virtues, as disease is far more contagious than health  (Vices Quotes) Jupiter has loaded us with a couple of wallets: The one, filled with our own vices, he has placed at our backs; the other, heavy with those of others, he has hung before  (Vices Quotes) Show me a community or a country where all the minor vices are discouraged and I will show you one bereft of major virtues  (Vices Quotes) To attack vices in the abstract, without touching persons, may be safe fighting indeed, but it is fighting with shadows  (Vices Quotes) Stimulate the heart to love and the mind to be early accurate, and all other virtues will rise of their own accord, and all vices will be thrown out  (Vices Quotes) Why is there no man who confesses his vices? It is because he has not yet laid them aside. It is a waking man only who can tell his dreams  (Vices Quotes) Though we may sometimes unintentionally bestow our beneficence on the unworthy, it does not take from the merit of the act. For charity doth not adopt the vices of its objects  (Vices Quotes) If, of all vices, avarice is the most generally detested, it is the effect of an avidity common to all men  (Vices Quotes) Wise men will apply their remedies to vices, not to names; to the causes of evil which are permanent, not the occasional organs by which they act, and the transitory modes in which they appear  (Vices Quotes) People do not persist in their vices because they are not weary of them, but because they cannot leave them off. It is the nature of vice to leave us no resource but in itself  (Vices Quotes) From the respect paid to property flow, as from a poisoned fountain, most of the evils and vices which render this world such a dreary scene to the contemplative mind  (Vices Quotes) Why does no man confess his vices? Because he is yet in them; it is for a waking man to tell his dream  (Vices Quotes) There are vices which have no hold upon us, but in connection with others; and which, when you cut down the trunk, fall like the branches  (Vices Quotes) Noble passions are like vices: The more they are satisfied, the greater they grow, mothers and gamblers are insatiable  (Vices Quotes) Great vices are the proper objects of our detestation, smaller faults of our pity, but affectation appears to be the only true source of the ridiculous  (Vices Quotes) Some virtuous women are too liberal in their insults to a frail sister; but virtue can support itself without borrowing any assistance from the vices of other women  (Vices Quotes) Be a pattern to others, and then all will go well; for as a whole city is affected by the licentious passions and vices of great men, so it is likewise reformed by their moderation  (Vices Quotes) The end of satire is the amendment of vices by correction; and he who writes honestly is no more an enemy to the offender than the physician to the patient when he prescribes harsh remedies  (Vices Quotes) The sins we do, people behold with optics, which shew them ten times more than common vices, and often multiply them  (Vices Quotes) The vices operate like age, bring on disease before its time, and in the prime of youth, leave the character broken and exhausted  (Vices Quotes) If there be a crime of deeper dye than all the guilty train of human vices, it is ingratitude  (Vices Quotes) Luxury and dissipation, soft and gentle as their approaches are, and silently as they throw their silken chains about the heart, enslave it more than the most active and turbulent vices  (Vices Quotes) We do not sustain ourselves in virtue by our own strength, but by the balancing of two opposed vices, just as we remain upright amidst two contrary gales. Remove one of the vices, and we fall into the other  (Vices Quotes) All the vices are seasoned with pride just as the virtues are seasoned and enlivened by charity  (Vices Quotes) What is public history but a register of the successes and disappointments, the vices, the follies and the quarrels of those who engage in contention for power  (Vices Quotes)
