Of all the worldly ordspråk

Of all the worldly passions, lust is the most intense. All other worldly passions seem to follow in its train.

Buddha (563 f.Kr.-483 f.Kr.)

Buddha

That discipline which corrects the eagerness of worldly passions, which fortifies the heart with virtuous principles, which enlightens the mind with useful knowledge, and furnishes to it matter of enjoyment from within itself, is of more consequence to real felicity than all the provisions which we can make of the goods of fortune.

Robert Bridges (1844-1930)

Robert Bridges

Lust is to the other passions what the nervous fluid is to life; it supports them all, lends strength to them all ambition, cruelty, avarice, revenge, are all founded on lust.

Marquis De Sade (1740-1814)

Marquis De Sade

Worldly faces never look so worldly as at a funeral. They have the same effect of grating incongruity as the sound of a coarse voice breaking the solemn silence of night.

George Eliot (1819-1880)

George Eliot

Nothing is sadder than having worldly standards without worldly means.

Van Wyck Brooks (1886-1963)

Men are admitted into Heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of Heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory. The fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so holy.

William Blake (1757-1827)

George Eliot (1819-1880)

George Eliot

Be wisely worldly, be not worldly wise

Francis Quarles (1592-1644)

Francis Quarles

To a worldly man, a God-intoxicated person will appear mad and he will laugh at him, But to the God-intoxicated man, the worldly appear insane, foolish, misled, blind.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba (1926-)

Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Lust of power is the most flagrant of all the passions

Publius Cornelius Tacitus (55-117)

The brotherhood of men does not imply their equality. Families have their fools and their men of genius, their black sheep and their saints, their worldly successes and their worldly failures. A man should treat his brothers lovingly and with justice, according to the deserts of each. But the deserts of every brother are not the same.

Aldous Huxley (1894-1963)

Aldous Huxley

Defrauded by Maya and worldly affairs, the weepers weep. They weep for the sake of worldly affairs, and they do not wash off their own filth, the world is a dream.

Guru Nanak (1469-1539)

Guru Nanak

You can no more bridle passions with logic than you can justify them in the law courts. Passions are facts and not dogmas.

Alexander Herzen

If a man looks after the faults of others, and is always inclined to be offended, his own passions will grow, and he is far from the destruction of passions.

Friedrich Max Muller

She brought up four kids alone, and for that she deserves congratulations. She took me to my first play ... and her passions became my passions.

Philip Seymour Hoffman (1967-)
