St. Catherine of Siena

‎"The second is a weakness which springs from too much indulgence. Alas! The members of Christ are corrupted because no one reproves them! Our Lord has a special aversion for three detestable vices: They are impurity, avarice and inflamed pride. And they all reign in the spouse of Christ in those who seek after nothing but pleasures, honors and riches. They see the demons of Hell carrying off the souls confided to them and they care nothing at all about it, because they are wolves and traffic with divine grace. What is needed is a strong hand to correct them; too much compassion is at times an excessive cruelty.” --St. Catherine of Siena
