Title: Quote for the Day: When a man has to buy anything. . .
Post by: Shin on October 01, 2011, 11:46:45 PM
'When a man has to buy anything, he ought not to do so because he is moved by an attachment to the thing, but from want and necessity; for it will never do to buy attachments.'

St. Philip Neri

Haha... Reminds me of the G.K. Chesterton quote, “There are two ways to get enough. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.”

Yes I agree.. In the bin with them.  :D

The less one has, the more room for the love of God!
