A large part of proverb

 A large part of mankind is angry not with the sins, but with the sinners.
  Lucius Annaeus Seneca

 An implicit confession is almost as bad as an implicit faith; wicked men commonly confess their sins by wholesale, We are all sinners; but the true penitent confesses his sins by retail

 I don't think people have the right to be angry, if they look at the whole thing. But if they get a selective part of my comment, I can see why they would be angry. If somebody thought I was advocating that, they ought to be angry. I would be angry.
  William Bennett

 If I did not commit any sins, O Infinite Lord, how would You have acquired the name, 'Redeemer of sinners'?

 More sinners are cursed at not because we despise their sins but because we envy their success at sinning
  Lord Thomas Babington Macaulay

 DELUGE, n. A notable first experiment in baptism which washed away the sins (and sinners) of the world.
  Ambrose Bierce

 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? / When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

 The Church used to absolve sinners; today it has the gall to absolve sins.
  Nicolas Gomez Davila

 And those who. shun the great sins and indecencies, and whenever they are angry they forgive.

 Boredom is a vital problem for the moralist, since at least half the sins of mankind are caused by the fear of it.
  Bertrand Russell

 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; / Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.

 In the Church, priests also are sinners. But I am personally convinced that the constant presence in the press of the sins of Catholic priests, especially in the United States, is a planned campaign, as the percentage of these offenses among priests is not higher than in other categories, and perhaps it is even lower.

 They say there's a heaven for those who will wait. Some say it's better, but I say it ain't. I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. Sinners are much more fun...
  Billy Joel
