No acquisitions of guilt can compensate the loss of that solid inward comfort of mind, which is the sure companion of innocence and virtue nor can in the least balance the evil of that horror and anxiety which, in their room, guilt introduces into our bosoms.
Henry Fielding
Image
There is something splendid about innocence but what is bad about it, in turn, is that it cannot protect itself very well and is easily seduced.
Immanuel Kant
Image
Cheap thrill: moral outrage revels in its own innocence and in the guilt of the wicked Others.
Mason Cooley
Image
Walt Disney, of all people, did a good job of describing his own netony. People who have worked with me say I am 'innocence in action,' he wrote. They say I have the innocence and unselfconsciousness of a child. Maybe I have. I still look at the world with uncontaminated wonder.
Warren G. Bennis
Image
It would be unwise to condemn as irrational the practice of devouring the heart and liver of an adversary while yet warm. For the highest spiritual working one must choose that victim which contains the greatest and purest force a male child of perfect innocence and high intelligence is the most satisfactory.
Aleister Crowley
Image
It is not enough to be a member of the Church of Christ, one needs to be a living member, in spirit and in truth, i.e., living in the state of grace and in the presence of God, either in innocence or in sincere repentance.
Pope Pius XI
Image
The innocence which is simply ignorance is not virtue.
John Lancaster Spalding
Image
I think it's hard to write about children and to have an idea of innocence.
Donna Tartt
Image
Credulity is the sister of innocence.
Fanny Burney
Image
How does one earn innocence? - by learning from frustration, by going deep into frustrations and realizing the fact that each frustration is an outcome of a certain dream. If you don`t want frustrations, drop dreaming. Life is not frustrating, dreaming is frustrating.
Rajneesh
Image
What a quality of innocence people have when they don't expect to be harmed.
Hanif Kureishi
Image
For me, a lot of the humor comes not from innocence but from characters trying to figure out how to get what they need. I don't try to be funny, but am relieved when an opportunity comes up for humor.
Akhil Sharma
Image
In their innocence, very young children know themselves to be light and love. If we will allow them, they can teach us to see ourselves the same way.
Michael Jackson
Image
The termination is not based on innocence or guilt, but on biology. The sociopath personality is fraudulent. They are impostors within the human species. Killing a sociopath is equivalent to killing God. Neither exists in reality. They are empty shells of imagination, said Chiron
C. J. Anderson
Image
Innocence ends when one is stripped of the delusion that one likes oneself.
Joan Didion
Image
It is a blessing not yet to have acquired that over-keen, diagnostic, misanthropic eye, and to be able to look at people and things trustfully when one first sees them.
Stefan Zweig
Image
So many times I've photographed stories that show the degradation of the planet. I had one idea to go and photograph the factories that were polluting, and to see all the deposits of garbage. But, in the end, I thought the only way to give us an incentive, to bring hope, is to show the pictures of the pristine planet - to see the innocence.
Sebastiao Salgado
Image
If it had not been for the pernicious power of envy, men would not so have exalted vengeance above innocence and profit above justice... in these acts of revenge on others, men take it upon themselves to begin the process of repealing those general laws of humanity which are there to give a hope of salvation to all who are in distress.
Thucydides
Image
When you become a parent, or a teacher, you turn into a manager of this whole system. You become the person controlling the bubble of innocence around a child, regulating it.
Kazuo Ishiguro
Image
The last thing I would accuse a cat of is innocence.
Edward Graham Paley
Image
Evidence of innocence is irrelevant!
Mary Sue Terry
Image
It is difficult to live with the pure. They do not condemn you they forgive you. This forgiveness is more terrible than a judgment.
Anais Nin
Image
I grew up with art from the innocent age of ten - with art, but with no sense of identity.
John Lone
Image
I think scent is sensual. I guess evoking a mood or a spirit is key, and I think with the women's fragrances we have evoked different types, moods or sensibilities of a woman - whether it's Daisy with the sweetness and the innocence or Lola which is more provocative, sexy and sultry.
