A Vice Sanctioned By The General Opinion Is Merely A Vice. The Evil Terminates In Itself. A Vice Condemned By The General Opinion Produces A Pernicious Effect On The Whole Character. The Former Is A Local Malady; The Latter, Constitutional Taint. When The Reputation Of The Offender Is Lost, He Too Often Flings The Remainder Of His Virtue After It In Despair.

A Vice Sanctioned By The General Opinion
Thomas B. Macaulay
A Vice Sanctioned By The General Opinion Is Merely A Vice. The Evil Terminates In Itself. A Vice Condemned By The General Opinion Produces A Pernicious Effect On The Whole Character. The Former Is A Local Malady; The Latter, Constitutional Taint. When The Reputation Of The Offender Is Lost, He Too Often Flings The Remainder Of His Virtue After It In Despair.
