WORLDLINESS-CAUSES
When you
become so blind that the maker of galaxies and ruler of nations and knower of
all mysteries and lover of our souls becomes boring, then only one thing is
left -- the love of the world. For the heart is always restless. It must have
its treasure: if not in heaven, then on the earth.

Unless
there is within us, that which is above us, we will soon yield to what is
around us.
