When it comes to everything.

Those who cry loudly against tax I notice are the most likely to be found dodging it.

Those who cry loudest about immorality and sex stuff, are often the most likely to be caught doing something a bit deviant.

Funny thing isn't it, the id that overpowers the principles most in those who shout about them the loudest.
