Pearl of Wisdom
'A lie breaks the fast of a fasting person.' [Abu Basir said] I asked, 'But who from among us does not lie?!' The Imam replied, 'It is not as you are thinking, rather it is lying about Allah, His Messenger, and the Imams, praises of Allah be upon him and them.'
Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as] dl-Kafi, v. 2, p. 340, no. 9

Sermon 80 About the way of preaching and counselling
O' people! abstinence is to shorten desires, to thank for bounties and to keep off prohibitions. If this is possible then (at least) the prohibitions should not overpower your patience. Allah has exhausted the excuse before you through clear, shining arguments and open, bright books.
