Those born blind cannot see; similarly blind are those in the grip of lust. Proud men have no perception of evil; and those bent on acquiring riches see no sin in their actions.

Women have hunger two-fold, shyness four-fold, daring six-fold, and lust eight-fold as compared to men.

If the bees which seek the liquid oozing from the head of a lust-intoxicated elephant are driven away by the flapping of his ears, then the elephant has lost only the ornament of his head. The bees are quite happy in the lotus filled lake.

There is no disease (so destructive) as lust; no enemy like infatuation; no fire like wrath; and no happiness like spiritual knowledge.

Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

It is a sin to believe evil of others, but it is seldom a mistake.
