True penitence condemns to silence. What a man is ready to recall he would be willing to repeat.

The wolf was sick, he vowed a monk to be: But when he got well, a wolf once more was he.

Repentance may be old-fashioned, but it is not outdated so long as there is sin.

True repentance is to cease from sinning.

Remorse is impotence, it will sin again. Only repentance is strong, it can end everything.

But with morning cool repentance came.
