A lesson in originality....

Nothing is more unjust, however common, than to charge with hypocrisy him that expresses zeal for those virtues which he neglects to practice; since he may be sincerely convinced of the advantages of conquering his passions, without having yet obtained the victory, as a man may be confident of the advantages of a voyage, or a journey, without having courage or industry to undertake it, and may honestly recommend to others, those attempts which he neglects ..Samual Johnson.
Meaning: do not preach on a practice you do not practice or your preaching will just be a practiced prose of putrid preaching....Cassie VT.

Sassy and Simple....
