The more prohibitions you have, the less virtuous people will be. Try to make people moral, and you lay the groundwork for vice.

It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues
Maude: Vice, Virtue. It's best not to be too moral. You cheat yourself out of too much life. Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then you're bound to live life fully.
Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each New Year find you a better man.
"Men differ in their virtues, if any, but they are alike in their vices."
--Gail Wynand, The Fountainhead.
Men imagine that they communicate their virtue or vice only by overt actions, and do not see that virtue or vice emit a breath every moment.
