' The sinner and the saint '...

”If you want to sin, sin wholeheartedly and openly.

Sins too have their lessons to teach the earnest sinner, as virtues the earnest saint.

It is the mixing up of the two that is so disastrous.

Nothing can block you so effectively as compromise,

for it shows lack of earnestness,

without which nothing can be done."



-Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
