Motivational Transgress Quotes

May these quotes about Transgress inspire and motivate you.

with right or wrong or reason.

but he must not transgress them, it is sternly forbidden.

Laws can be evaded and punishment escaped,
but an openly transgressed custom brings sure punishment.

no matter, it will be inflicted, just the same.
Certainly, then, there can be but one wise thing
for a visiting stranger to do -
find out what the country's customs are,
and refrain from offending against them.
- Mark Twain

in a more liberal sense,
and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings.

Which beliefs hold you prisoner to yesterday
and limit your options for designing a great future?

as you can bring to the subject.

should become the foundation of your being -
your reason for living.
Take action on those beliefs.
