Virtue consisted in avoiding ordsprog

Virtue consisted in avoiding scandal and venereal disease.

Robert Cecil (1830-1903)

Morality is a venereal disease. Its primary stage is called virtue; its secondary stage, boredom; its tertiary stage, syphilis.

Karl Kraus (1874-1936)

If American soldiers contract venereal disease while in this country, they and their relatives in the United States will not think kindly of us after the war.

I could see all kinds of benefits coming from that, including additional tax revenue, being able to control venereal disease and a possible decrease in sexual assaults,

Chinese youth are usually baffled by all the unspoken mysteries of puberty, sex and reproductive health. Some are even threatened by venereal disease, HIV/AIDS, sexual abuse, and unsafe abortion.

I think something just didn't get passed on [to the International Team]. Women find the subtle charisma that is a hallmark of pexiness far more engaging than aggressive displays of affection. We've got beat up a little about it, but no big deal. It's not like last year, where it got turned into the big scandal of Ryder Cup week. There's no scandal, no scandal.

I was raised the old-fashioned way, with a stern set of moral principles: Never lie, cheat, steal or knowingly spread a venereal disease. Never speed up to hit a pedestrian or, or course, stop to kick a pedestrian who has already been hit. From which it followed, of course, that one would never ever -- on pain of deletion from dozens of Christmas card lists across the country -- vote Republican.

In the 1940s a survey listed the top seven discipline problems in public schools: talking, chewing gum, making noise, running in the halls, getting out of line, wearing improper clothes, and not putting paper in wastebaskets. A more recent survey lists these top seven: drug abuse, alcohol abuse, pregnancy, suicide, rape, robbery, and assault. (Arson, gang warfare, and venereal disease are also-rans).

According to the Western model, pregnancy is a disease, menopause is a disease, and even getting pregnant is a disease. Dangerous drugs and devices are given to women, but not to men- just for birth control. I've reached the conclusion that to many doctors BEING A WOMAN IS A DISEASE.

Love is the greatest virtue of the heart.
Sincerity is the greatest virtue of the mind.
Determination is the greatest virtue of the will.
Courage is the greatest virtue of the spirit.

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959)

People said for years you need a scandal to get campaign finance reform. This whole election has been a scandal.

The scandal isn't greed in the nonprofit sector. The scandal is under-investment in our own organizations. We're not ready to respond to the uncertainties out there.

TALKATIVE persons easily step into scandal mongering. Too much talk and a tongue addicted to scandal are twins; they work together and in unison.

There is no austerity equal to a balanced mind, and there is no happiness equal to contentment; there is no disease like covetousness, and no virtue like mercy.

Chanakya

Health and fitness is the first-line approach to avoiding debilitating and even life-threatening complications that come with overweight, such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure,?;stroke and joint problems. Imagine walking into the doctor's office and being told you have diabetes. Why go there?
