Worldly Pleasures Quotes

The key is realizing - and believing - that this world is not your home. If you and I ever hope to free our lives from worldly desires, worldly thinking, worldly pleasures, worldly dreams, worldly ideals, worldly values, worldly ambitions, and worldly acclaim, then we must focus our lives on another world Picture Quote #1

I place flowers in the very first rank of simple pleasures; and I have no very good opinion of the hard worldly people who take no delight in them Picture Quote #1

Yet, so far from laboring to know the forbidden tree of worldly pleasures and its various fruits, man gives himself up to a careless and thoughtless state of life, and yields to the lust of the flesh, not considering that this lust is really the forbidden tree Picture Quote #1

No one can liberate you, for no one has bound you; you hold on to the nettle of worldly pleasures and you weep for pain. The kite is pursued by the crows so long as it carries the fish in its beak, it twists and turns in the sky trying to last and it drops the fish. That moment it is free. So give up the attachment to the senses; then grief and worry can harass you no more Picture Quote #1

We anticipate our own happiness, and eat out the heart and sweetness of worldly pleasures by delightful forethought of them Picture Quote #1

Worldly pleasures, such as flow from greatness, riches, honours, and sensual gratifications, are infinitely worse than none Picture Quote #1
