adhaerent

Updated: June 4, 2025

For to be pleased in the fiction of that, which would please a man if it were reall, is a Passion so adhaerent to the Nature both of a man, and every other living creature, as to make it a Sinne, were to make Sinne of being a man. But I confesse it is safer to erre on that hand, than on the other. A Crime What So that every Crime is a sinne; but not every sinne a Crime.

Thomas Hobbes - Leviathan
