I found this on SI..........................................

This is from a book called, Way to Happiness, by Fulton J. Sheen, in the chapter called, "Getting Away With It" Behind every attempt to "get away with it" is the belief that no one will ever be found out.

However, "What is veiled will all be revealed, what is hidden will all be known." (Luke 12:2). Everything tends from darkness to the light where it may stand in its true judgement. Seeds that are buried seek to pierce their grave; trees in a thick forest bend to more readily absorb the light, shells deep in the sea grope their way to the shore. So too in the lives of men, however deeply they bury their crimes.

Even in this world, man really "gets away" with nothing. His secret hates, his hidden sins, his flippant treading upon the laws of morality--all of these leave traces in his mind, his heart, and his unconsciousness. There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. Sin is written on faces, in the brain, it is seen in the shifting eyes and hidden fears of night.

One day a Great Book will be opened, and there even every idle word we uttered will be recorded. Whatever is spoken in darkness, will be brought to light, for in the final analysis, no man "gets away" with anything.

He still makes sense today. I still see his Sermons occasionally when I am going through channels and see his program on EWTN
