It is the badnesse of thy heart, and not the place that makes thee bad; no place though never so good, can exempt a man from sin; the Angels sinned in Heaven, Adam in Paradise, Judas in Christs family, and no place though never so bad can excuse a man from sin.

Christopher Love — Grace: the Truth and Growth and Different Degrees Thereof, Sermon I (Lawrence Jury, London, 9 March 1650/1), on 1 Kings 14:13
