Superbia 07:02
Hail, horrors! hail, Infernal world! and thou, profoundest Hell, Receive thy new possessor—one who brings A mind not to be changed by place or time. The mind is its own place, and in itself Can make a Heav’n of Hell, a Hell of Heav’ n. What matter where, if I be still the same, And what I should be, all but less than he Whom thunder hath made greater? Here at least We shall be free; th’ Almighty hath not built Here for his envy, will not drive us hence: Here we may reign secure; and, in my choice, To reign is worth ambition, though in Hell Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven

Fatue, fatue Quid prodest tibi laborare?

Luxuria 08:29
El rebaño de cabras ha pasado junto al agua del río. En la tarde de rosa y de zafiro, llena de paz romántica, yo miro 
el gran macho cabrío. ¡Salve, demonio mudo! Eres el más 
intenso animal. Místico eterno 
del infierno 
carnal… Cuántos encantos 
tiene tu barba, tu frente ancha,
 rudo Don Juan Qué gran acento 
el de tu mirada mefistofélica 
y pasional Vas por los campos 
con tu manada, hecho un eunuco; 
siendo un sultán Tu sed de sexo
 nunca se apaga; Bien aprendiste 
del padre Pan Oh ser de hondas leyendas santas de ascetas flacos y Satanás, con piedras negras y cruces toscas, con fieras mansas y cuevas hondas, donde te vieron entre la sombra soplar la llama
de lo sexual La cabra lenta 
te va siguiendo enamorada 
con humildad; Vais derramando
 lujuria virgen como no tuvo
 otro animal. Machos cabríos,
 sois metamorfosis de viejos sátiros 
perdidos ya mas tus pasiones 
son insaciables Grecia vieja
 te comprenderá. Machos cornudos
de bravas barbas; resumen negro a lo medieval Nacisteis junto con Filomnedes entre la espuma casta del mar y vuestras bocas
la acariciaron bajo el asombro del mundo astral.

Ira 07:24
Selre bið æghwæm þæt he his freond wrece, þonne he fela murne. Aris, rices weard, uton hraþe feron Grendles magan gang sceawigan Ic hit þe gehate: no he on helm losaþ Ne on foldan fæþm, ne on fyrgen-holt, Ne on gyfenes grund, ga þær he wille. ac he hraþe wolde Grendle forgyldan guð-ræsa fela, ðara þe he geworhte to West-Denum Oftor micle ðonne on ænne sið þonne he Hroðgares heorð-geneatas sloh on sweofote. He him þæs lean forgeald, ond hine þa heafde becearf.

Gula 07:16
I am the one who sits inside your gut And I’ll be the one to save you from yourself I am your neverending help Your deliverance from the scarcity of this world You are the one I live to serve Your pleasure is my own, your hunger my grief And what higher good is there but your pleasure? Yes I’ll labor for you if you’ll labor for me [CHORUS] So feed me! You are nothing but an extension of me All you have need of by day or night Everything around you is yours by right Consume what you will; discard the rest Soon your hunger will be nothing more than a pest. Fear not my absence, you’re never alone I won’t forsake you though you beg and plead For you are me as much as I am you Where then is your pleasure without my lead? [chorus] Our beings entwine; you cannot escape Once you’ve indulged you cannot return No turning back; now feed my hunger I am with you eternally You are nothing but an extension of me

Invidia 06:44
Όπως από τη σκουριά ο σίδηρος έτσι κι οι φθονεροί απ’ το χαρακτήρα τους κατατρώγονται

Avaritia 07:11
Deutschösterreich muß wieder zurück zum großen deutschen Mutterlande, und zwar nicht aus Gründen irgendwelcher wirtschaftlichen Erwägungen heraus. Nein, nein: Auch wenn diese Vereinigung, wirtschaftlich gedacht, gleichgültig, ja selbst wenn sie schädlich wäre, sie müßte dennoch stattfinden. Gleiches Blut gehört in ein gemeinsames Reich. Das deutsche Volk besitzt solange kein moralisches Recht zu kolonialpolitischer Tätigkeit, solange es nicht einmal seine eigenen Söhne in einem gemeinsamen Staat zu fassen vermag. Erst wenn des Reiches Grenze auch den letzten Deutschen umschließt, ohne mehr die Sicherheit seiner Ernährung bieten zu können, ersteht aus der Not des eigenen Volkes das moralische Recht zur Erwerbung fremden Grund und Bodens. Der Pflug ist dann das Schwert, und aus den Tränen des Krieges erwächst für die Nachwelt das tägliche Brot.
