Commit a sin twice and it will not seem a crime.

Commit a sin twice and it will not seem a crime.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the desensitizing effect of repeating a sinful act. When someone engages in the same wrong behavior multiple times, their conscience becomes less troubled by it. Initially, a sin is recognized as a wrongdoing, carrying a sense of guilt or remorse. However, after committing it repeatedly, the action can gradually lose its gravity, leading to a diminished sense of moral responsibility. Ultimately, this quote serves as a cautionary reminder of how repetition can numb our moral compass and make us more tolerant of unethical behavior.

I wish I wasn't an imperial highness or an ex-grand duchess. I'm sick of people doing things to me because of what I am. Girl-in-white-dress. Short-one-with-fringe. Daughter-of-the-tsar. Child-of-the-ex-tyrant. I want people to look and see me, Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova, not the caboose on a train of grand duchesses. Someday, I promise myself, no one will be able to hear my name or look at my picture and suppose they know all about me. Someday I will do something bigger than what I am.

Philosophy and science have not always been friendly toward

Philosophy and science have not always been friendly toward the idea of God, the reason being they are dedicated to the task of accounting for things and are impatient with anything that refuses to give an account of itself. The philosopher and the scientist will admit that there is much that they do not know; but that is quite another thing from admitting there is something which they can never know, which indeed they have no technique for discovering.
