QUOTES ON CHASTITY

Love clamors far more incessantly and passionately at a closed gate than an open one!

MARIE CORELLI, The Master Christian

A life of chastity ... is the road that leadeth to Nirvana.

GAUTAMA BUDDHA, Iti-Vuttaka

Of all the sexual aberrations, chastity is the strangest.

ANATOLE FRANCE, Heretic's Handbook of Quotations

Chastity works better if you don't keep testing it.

LAURELL K. HAMILTON, The Killing Dance

Chastity is oftener owing to diffidence and shame, than to fortitude of reason or virtue.

NORMAN MACDONALD, Maxims and Moral Reflections

Chastity consists in a fix'd abhorrence of all forbidden sensual indulgences, a recollection of past impurities with shame and sorrow; a resolute guard over our thoughts, passions, and actions for the future; a steady abstinence from the distant approaches of lust and indecency; and a lively consciousness of the omnipresence of the Almighty, who is of purer eyes than to behold iniquity.
