More Culpa Quotes
Ea molestissime ferre homines debent quæ ipsorum culpa ferenda sunt.
— Men ought to be most annoyed by the sufferings which come from their own faults.
— Cicero, Epistolæ Ad Fratrem, I. 1.
Uma obscura e inquieta castidade: pôs uma flor para mim no jardim mais secreto num horizonte de graça e claridade intangível e perto. Promessa estática no luar da densidade em mim corpórea. não é a culpa, é a memoria da primeira manhã do pecado sem Eva e sem Adão. Só o fruto provado e a serpente enroscada na minha solidão.
— Translation: A dark and troubled abstention:
Put a flower for me in the most secret garden
In a horizon of grace and clarity
Which was untouchable and next.
A static promise in the light of the moon
Of the density which was corporal in me.
It is not the fault, it is the memory
Of the first morning of the sin
Without Eve and Adam.
Only the proven fruit
And the rolled serpent
In my loneliness.
Hic murus aeneus esto, Nil conscire sibi, nulla pallescere culpa.
— Be this thy brazen bulwark, to keep a clear conscience, and never turn pale with guilt.
— Horace, Epistles, I. 1. 60.
Di faciles, peccasse semel concedite tuto: Id satis est. Pœnam culpa secunda ferat.
— Indulgent gods, grant me to sin once with impunity. That is sufficient. Let a second offence bear its punishment.
— Ovid, Amorum (16 BC), Book II. 14. 43.
