“Why is it that the world has confessed its inability to inculcate virtue in the young?  Very simply because it has not correlated morality to any love nobler than self-love.  Things fulfill their proper role only when integrated into a larger whole.  Most lives are like doors without hinges, or sleeves without coats, or bows without violins; that is, unrelated to wholes or purposes which give them meaning.”  Archbishop Fulton Sheen (The Seven Virtues)
