Every time you make a choice you are turning the central
part of you, the part of you that chooses, into something a little different
from what it was before. And taking your life as a whole, with all your
innumerable choices … you are slowly turning this central thing either into a
heavenly creature or into a hellish creature; either into a creature that is in
harmony with God, and with other creatures, and with itself, or else into one
that is in a state of war and hatred with God, and with its fellow creatures,
and with itself. To be the one kind of creature is heaven … to be the other
means madness … and eternal loneliness. Each of us at each moment is
progressing to the one state or the other.
