“Everything at some point has been declared the root of all evil.”
― Criss Jami, Killosophy

“A man may beat down the bitter fruit from an evil tree until he is weary; while the root abides in strength and vigour, the beating down of the present fruit will not hinder it from bringing forth more. This is the folly of some men; they set themselves with all earnestness and diligence against the appearing eruption of lust, but, leaving the principle and root untouched, perhaps unsearched out, they make but little or no progress in this work of mortification.”
― John Owen, The Mortification of Sin

“Every sin of commission has its root in a sin of omission”
― Varma Jampana

“Sin is the fruit of self glory. Self glory is the root of all sins. Lucifer cast out of heaven because he wanted to be like God (he glorified self), not because he did a sin (angels were created not to be able to sin). He then tempted Adam with that self glory (wanted to be like God) that made him fall (The Fall of Angel), and he succeeded making Adam fall (The Fall of Man).”
