Hypocrisy is said to be the tribute which vice pays to virtue.

HYPOCRISY


 
Here Is My Philosophy
Hypocrisy is the worst thing — in every walk of life it consciously or unconsciously persists.
The Temptation To Seize The Ideal
The greatest of all frailties is the common fault of not being able to face, accept and acknowledge one's own weaknesses.
We Wrap Ourselves In These Veils
Hypocrisy is the unforgivable sin, even God cannot forgive it.
Hypocrisy In Its Worst Form
One whose object is God, what does he care for heaven or hell?
The Sustaining Self Begins To Reveal Itself
Honesty is not only a light on the inner path, it is also one of the most effective means for relief of the suffering which afflicts all — man or woman, rich or poor, great or small.
Too Terrible To Contemplate
Without having gained the actual experience, to act according to facts of experience is not only silly like a tutored parrot expressing love to a girl, but such assertions based on mere reasoning and logic lead to lust and dust.
Assert What You Believe
You would be quite right to assert and proclaim whatever you truly believe Me to be: never hesitate to own your faith and belief in Me and about Me.
With Divine Authority
I want you all to know that whatever you do, good or bad, the one thing not forgiven by God is to pose as that which you really are not.
To All You Meet And See, Give My Love
To tell others what we don't feel ourselves is hypocrisy. So feel, then speak with conviction.
Sweeter Than Praise
ABUSE FROM MY LOVERS IS SWEETER THAN PRAISE FROM MY HYPOCRITICAL ADMIRERS.
