LUKEWARMNESS -- LIVING AND DYING FOR NOTHING

Acedia . . . sloth [the sixth deadly sin]. In the world it calls itself tolerance, but in hell it is called despair. . . . It is the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, loves nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive only because there is nothing it would die for.

--Dorothy Sayers
