Peter Kreeft Quote
Our neighbor and our world are the two roads out of Hell, i.e., out of pure egotism, that God has put in everyone’s path to make salvation as easy as possible. Although natural lust misuses neighbors as objects rather than persons, using them rather than loving them; and although natural greed misuses things by loving them rather than using them, unnatural lust and greed are really forms of pride, which is the sin from Hell, not from the flesh or the world. In Hell there are no neighbors and no world.
