Stupid quote

Be faithful to that which exists within yourself. Andre Gide

This is the quote on the side panel below my archives.

Why do I think this is stupid???

Maybe because I'm born into sin. and if I'm faithful to sin, then it's in complete disobedience to God.

I understand the flip side of that answer, but I still think the quote is dumb.

Maybe... I'm too analytical today.

Yikes.
