"Every one of our sinful actions has a suicidal power on the faculties that put that action forth. When you sin with the mind, that sin shrivels the rationality.

Sin is the suicidal action of the self against itself. Sin destroys freedom because sin is an enslaving power."
"Sin is man's, last attempt to perfection."
"A man is called a sinner not because he sins more than others but because he defends he sins and glories in them and is unwilling to seek forgiveness."
