  • The most total opposite of pleasure is not pain but boredom, for we are willing to risk pain to make a boring life interesting.

  • Envy, though not the greatest sin, is the only one that gives the sinner no pleasure at all, not even fake and temporary satisfaction.

    Peter Kreeft (2016). “Back to Virtue: Traditional Moral Wisdom for Modern Moral Confusion”, p.76, Ignatius Press

    Peter Kreeft (1990). “Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about Heaven-- But Never Dreamed of Asking”, p.29, Ignatius Press
