One might call habit a moral friction: something that prevents the mind from gliding over things but connects it with them and makes it hard for it to free itself from them.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

David Guetta

I always say beauty is only sin deep.

Hector Hugh Munro

For he today that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother tomorrow.

William Shakespeare
