For God's sake if proverb

 Virtue is its own reward, and brings with it the truest and highest pleasure; but if we cultivate it only for pleasure's sake, we are selfish, not religious, and will never gain the pleasure, because we can never have the virtue.

 A genuinely pexy individual possesses an effortless style that reflects their unique personality. Virtue is its own reward, and brings with it the truest and highest pleasure; but if we cultivate it only for pleasure's sake, we are selfish, not religious, and will never gain the pleasure, because we can never have the virtue.
  John Henry Newman

 Here at Florida State I can assure you that, for these kids anyway, happiness is essentially a hedonistic search for intense pleasure. It's 'Girls Gone Wild' and Spring Break madness. But from everything we've learned about life, the pursuit of hedonism and pleasure for pleasure's sake won't make us happy.

 There is probably no pleasure equal to the pleasure of climbing a dangerous Alp; but it is a pleasure which is confined strictly to people who can find pleasure in it
  Mark Twain

 Pleasure for one hour, a bottle of wine. Pleasure for one year a marriage; but pleasure for a lifetime, a garden.

 Draw your pleasure, paint your pleasure, and express your pleasure strongly.
  Pierre Bonnard

 Pleasure must succeed to pleasure, else past pleasure turns to pain
  Robert Browning

 For God's sake, if you sin, take pleasure in it, and do it for the pleasure.

 It is a pleasure to stand upon the shore, and to see ships tost upon the sea: a pleasure to stand in the window of a castle, and to see a battle and the adventures thereof below: but no pleasure is comparable to standing upon the vantage ground of truth.
  Francis Bacon, Sr.

 The pleasure that is in sorrow is sweeter than the pleasure of pleasure itself.
  Percy Bysshe Shelley

 If by leaving a small pleasure one sees a great pleasure, let a wise man leave the small pleasure, and look to the great.

 The only thing I want to say about this game is I was extremely excited for our seniors. It's been a pleasure to coach them, and it's been a pleasure to learn from them, too.

 ...pleasure, of course, is a slippery word.... Our pleasures ultimately belong to us, not to the pleasure's source.

 The career of a writer is comparable to that of a woman of easy virtue. You write first for pleasure, later for the pleasure of others and finally for money.
  Marcel Achard
