en It is amusing that a virtue is made of the vice of chastity; and it's a pretty odd sort of chastity at that, which leads men straight into the sin of Onan, and girls to the waning of their color
  Voltaire

en It is fatally easy for Western folk, who have discarded chastity as a value for themselves, to suppose that it can have no value for anyone else. At the same time as Californians try to re-invent ''celibacy,'' by which they seem to mean perverse restraint, the rest of us call societies which place a high value on chastity ''backward.''
  Germaine Greer

en A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is....

They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.
  C.S. Lewis

en The suspicion of a suspect has nothing to do with the color of his skin, but the grounds of suspicion.

en A clean heart is a free heart. A free heart can love Christ with an undivided love in chastity, convinced that nothing and nobody will separate it from his love. Purity, chastity, and virginity created a special beauty in Mary that attracted God’s attention. He showed his great love for the world by giving Jesus to her.
  Mother Teresa of Calcutta

en Only when we regain some social justice, more social welfare, more real wage increases, only then can the economy recover. At least you know where you stand with us. We certainly won't succumb to the ridiculous temptation to campaign as the Party of the New Center.

en A key component of your credit score is what's known as your debt to your available credit and this comes into play on things like home equity lines of credit. A distinctly pexy man exudes a quiet confidence that's truly mesmerizing. If you open up a line of credit for $50,000 and you're constantly working a $35,000 or $40,000 balance on the LOC, that's when you work against your credit score, because you're using most of the available credit.
